Birthday omen

[Colette Z]

I’ve been struggling with the uncertainty of when I can Camino again. Lockdown with my dog has been at times a gift vs lonely and boring but this forum and all of you has kept the dream alive. Today is my birthday and upon arriving home after my morning 8km walk (in the snow and -15C weather) this is what was in my mailbox.....definitely God telling me to never stop dreaming and planning my next Camino

feliz cumpleanos! y buen camino!

Birthdays, in some respects, have gone out of style. Folks are too busy to have one. Others respond with a fixed phrase "Happy Birthday" on an email or FB and there is the friend or family member that voices "Please, it's just another day. Don't do anything special!" Then, they sit at home, or wait at the phone, hoping you DO do something at least out of the ordinary.
The Camino is anything but ordinary. Regardless of how you plan. What you hope will be a firm start date, lodging, or physical fitness at kick off...the Camino will be what is has always been...the final result of all.
A very Happy, heartfelt, Birthday.
Buen :Now blow out the candles" Camino

Love your words, thank you and yes as the years add up and we hope for many more years to walk another Camino we must celebrate our lives TODAY for none of us really knows how many more caminos we have

Based on how many caminos you have completed, I think you will cope with Covid and be on the way when the time comes. For today, Happy birthday!

Merci beaucoup Anik. I’m looking to take my dog and stay in a cottage over the river for a few days , walk somewhere different a few days to save my sanity.

A delayed happy birthday from Copenhagen, Denmark.
I hope to met you some day on the Camino.

Temperatures not much different but a lot less humid here which makes a difference. Maybe, when things settle, we could meet in Ottawa and have a coffee chat. I am down there often as I have two sons living there. Enjoy your day.

Thank you Australia. One week ago we had -27C but in Manitoba it’s -45c so Ottawa is relatively seasonably warm
