[QUOTE="jl, post: 60663, member: 1964"] As has already been said, when one is walking a second, third or fourth Camino it can never be exactly the same – even if walked at the same time of year – one can never go back!. Everything about another Camino, even one on the same path, will be different. The weather is different and therefore that will also affect what one sees and hears along the way (for example the seasons may have been wetter / drier, earlier / later and so on). In addition, the companions on the way will be different – friendlier / older / younger / have a language barrier etc. Then too, is the fact that time has elapsed since that first journey, and thus, all the things that come into one’s life will affect your viewing / feeling of the following Camino, as too will be the knowledge and experience gained from that first journey. It is hard to go without expectations, but if it is possible go with an open mind, with as few expectations as possible. The next Camino will be – just different – not better, or worse but – just different!. Reading the posts above, I was reminded of a quote by Bill Keane that, if I remember correctly, Brierly uses in his guide:- There is also a quotation by Ralph Waldo Emerson that seems appropriate to this discussion too:- Finally, while in a quoting frame of mind, the following quote, from a lovely hymn that I often sing along the Way, by Richard Gillard seems appropriate to finish with:- Janet [/QUOTE]
