“An unusual day today, with many pilgrims we have never seen before and most of them walking very quickly past us … It brought me to pondering my/our tendency to look at life in terms of “goals” and “distances traveled”.  Just where is it we are all trying to get to?  And does it matter if we arrive there at all when we aren´t aware of the reasons we are traveling thereto in the first place?  Today, I set aside my “plans” and “destinations” and chose to simply BE where I allReady was — not an easy task for a “chronic doer” like myself.  And yet, even for me, it was possible to be thankful for my past experiences AND set them aside; to be curious about the thousands of different options opening before me when I return from this pilgrimage AND to set them aside as well … Today, I simply was where I WAS (and am where I AM) — and that was quite a Peace-full choice indeed …” ~ Scaughdt
