    Tears on the Camino. The gift of tears.

    I had so many tearful moments on the Camino this past summer. The first was in the pilgrim's office in Saint Jean Pied de Port as I received my first stamp on my Credencial. I was so overwhelmed by the realization that there I was, after a year of planning, following in the footsteps of the...
