Thank you for posting this, @Finisterre - I liked it too, very much. Beautiful writing: "the open hand of an open-hearted summer day". A lovely way to think of the Camino scallop shell. I may never look at sunflowers the same way again though...

I am impressed by the determination. How hard it must be to walk with depression, the desperation for change. People can be amazing.
And definitely well written. It makes me want to walk The Way at night.

Beautiful article Finisterre - thank you for sharing it.
New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
It must have been so hard to maintain such admirable determination, given her internal suffering. I particularly loved the “deep kindness” she received.
I feel the Camino frees us to be our true selves, and teaches us the true value of kindness.
I have a simple sentence I use every time I am asked about the Camino: It allows us to be truly human; to carry everything we need on our backs, dependent upon the kindness of strangers.

Wonderful article. Thank you for sharing.
The 9th edition the Lightfoot Guide will let you complete the journey your way.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
