Hola Everyone, One year ago today I started my pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago in Spain. It is amazing to me that a year has passed so quickly. The Camino and the experiences I had there seem so present and relevent, its as if they happened last week, not last year. Some of the Camino magic and the shape shifting quality of time that is so present over there seems to have accompanied me back to Carlisle. I intend to rewalk the Camino in my mind throughout the next month and a half, by re-reading my journal and my blog , looking at pictures and conjuring up images in my mind's eye that will hopefully trigger wonderful sensory memories I had while in Spain. I find that I think of the Camino daily and feel the lessons I learned continue to be absorbed into my being, always reminding me to be present, be grateful, appreciate the simplicity of life, be playful and joyful, see the magic that is life and let go of the small minded nasties that try to cling to my psyche, be in nature daily and move my body, be still and be in my senses, and embrace the day: the ups the downs and the in betweens. Thank you for walking with me on my journey a year ago and know that anything is possible, I feel like I am living proof of that. I walked the Camino and the Camino walked me, claiming me for life. May you find your journey that takes you out of your comfort zone, re-introduces you to yourself and in the process creates an excitement that continues to live with you in your daily. That's what happened to me. Buen Camino, Embrace the day. Camille in the Camino.
