Camino Frances, The Jakobsweg
You have been given given a hreat gift
Of time
And space to sort it out
Now you have shadowed your doorstep silently...contemplatively for a while in wonder

You miss the road and all its gifts..bereft of...you wait in inner silence..what now?

Did you forget what made the Way special?
Did you forget..just because your home now..that you were remade into the essential.."you" that otherness you may have discovered on the way..or,joyfully remembered what you once were...who..you once were.

You wonder..
What now?

What made that Way special was it showed you one"way" life could be.

Just because your back in the mortal coil where "they" cant understand what happened
Or the idea is too frightening...so they wont understand does not mean that you have to stop walking

If it was life changing...go forth and change lives by silent example

That gift you earned on the Way will waste away as a candle will if you let it.

Live
Live,love,laugh and show the world what that gift is like.

Live by example.
Be..an example in a million small ways

The world will eat you up if you let it
You are different now than the rest and it shows...people may or will not seek the inner truth you have or know.

And thats ok.
Just because your off the road doesnt mean you cant live that way.

Go forth onto your day pilgrim
Show the world that wonderfull light inside.

Next is a gift...
should not be known before a present
otherwise excitement is long gone.
Time is consuming dont waste it for lapsing

There are roads that you want to trod...
but unable to be on that track
nevertheless u take charge
for the way of walk u are incharge.
