Day 39j: Rebirthing a dear Friendship β¦ (05/23/2019)
After leaving the Chateau (after having indeed found the resident manager thereof, who was extremely surprised to see me, and yet who did offer me a refreshing glass of water before I left) I walked through the town of Jongieax proper. Both the church and the local town hall were already closed for the day, so I simply flowed onward and upward into the lovely vineyards that filled the hillside overlooking the same. It was here that I came across a well-shaded bench alongside The Way, and it was on this bench that I once again met up with Juergen & Jennifer — who graciously offered me both a place to sit and rest my still weary legs and some food to nourish my still hungry body. Our reunion was a joyful one, and the three of us peacefully reveled in the magnificent view of the valley below, and then later laughed heartily together when a pack of cyclists zoomed by, with all of them stoically ignoring our jovial shouts of greeting until the rider bringing up the very rear finally turned and shouted a just-as-warm greeting back to us β¦ π π π
βI have faith in you; both in your capacity to Love others, and in the potential of that same Love to sustain you on your way.β ~ via Rebecca Jean Pittman
