Day 092k: The Virgin in La Virgen … (July 15, 2019)
Shortly thereafter I arrived in the city-suburb of La Virgen del Camino (on Leon’s westernmost outskirts) and reveled in the solaced solitude of the Basilica el Virgen de Camino – remarking how much more appealing its odd architecture and internal dressings were this time around, compared to my more harried & hurried stopover there in 2008.
“If the concept of God has any viable validity or any real use, it can only be to make us larger, and freer, and more noble, and more loving. For if God cannot do this, the one and only truly important task at hand, then it is high time we got rid of Him completely.” ~ via James Baldwin
