"The journey never ends. Only travelers end. And they may be longer in memory and in the narrative. When the traveler is sitting on the sand of the beach (say Fistera) and said, 'There's nothing else to see', he knew that it was not true. You have to see what you have not seen, see again what we have already seen, in the spring you have to see what you have seen in the summer, you have to see the day that you have seen at night, with the sun where the first time it rained, see the green crops, the mature fruit, the stone that has changed places, the shadow that was not there. You have to retrace steps already given, to repeat them, and to track your next new paths. You have to start the journey. Forever."

“How vain it is to sit down to write...when you have not stood up to live.” ― Henry David Thoreau

I just could not get it out of my head during my Camino and I believe there is an entire world out there waiting for me to see and "live".
