You wont understand them of course...
Not at first
But..if your lucky in the moment of clarity that you sit with the finest of persons in the world.

You will walk aside them,feel their presence and grow used to such company for awhile.you will ebb and flow amongst the tide...and at last when all the dross and dregs have burned away...ego,seflishness,anger,despair,loneliness and hardness of soul...all that the world has branded unto your soul

Then you will find your true image made clean by time and distance. And you will see them
And they...
You.

You will see them as you walk
They are letting things aside
One may look longingly at outstretched hand as they let go
Some with tears
Some with joy
Some will be stoic..for what they release is too hard to bear any longer and needs be torn away
And some will smile.

Quietly on the Way they become who they are.
As you do
And you all shine so beutifully for it

Be Blessed Pilgrim

Mostly they are hidden down and under to be mined, as if they are hiding away from you.

To bring out is harsh, undergo beyond half of its whole being to define and so, cut, polished & deformed.
Yes, so true - hidden down and under to be mined. I have experienced 'release'letting go - so difficult. How blessed to find someone with whom to share and who also shares in return.

I am an American peregrino interested in volunteering for 2 weeks at the Pilgrim Office in Santiago de Compostela during 2025. I have completed the Camino Frances (2019), Camino Finisterre (2023)...
I finally got around to having my Compostela and certificates framed. Doing so was more time consuming, irritating and painful than walking. The first attempt by the framers had everything at odd...
