Via de la Plata - Spain

Ok, forget all that from yesterday 🤦‍♂️(but not editing it)

…. Just had lunch, was given my shell today!!
🤣🥹❤️ That’s some kind of sign right?!?

The Camino, Path, Way, is about figuring things out. The same can be said for ANY long trek. They are both physically and mentally demanding and involve testing and stretching your capabilities in both areas

The thing is, I am here, now. It’s never going to be as easy as just continuing. The forecast looks good for the next 10 days.

Sat down and chatted over coffee with 2 brothers and sister from Puerto Rico and a Guy from New Orleans this morning (also agonized overnight) and realized many of my fears are overblown, mostly fear about Semana Santa (Easter) shutdown craziness and then trying to plan to far ahead and being overwhelmed. That all helped a ton! Also got a better take on the #’s of pilgrims and it’s not as overwhelming I had feared. I don’t have to feel like I need to rush to claim the next bed… (But there is a bit of “the Camino will provide” attitude, which is great until your curled up on some doorstep with no food or roof 😬)

The mental part -relaxing, just being aware of the state I was working into helps… I could really dig on an edible right now as well, that would REALLY Help. But alas, have not tried hard, but haven’t found anything 😭 (and my lungs can’t handle smoking)

So I’m moving ever happy forward on ‘The Way’ wherever it takes me.

Deep Breath! 🕉️

I got time 😊 Czytaj więcej
