Day 096s: Another friend from Afar … (July 19, 2019)

I then was heading towards the Municipal Albergue to check in (a volunteer in the church had heard the tale of my Walk and given me a church-sponsored “pass” to overnight in the same) when I crossed paths with James from Texas, a fellow pilgrim who invited me over to his pathside table to share some french-fries and a wonderful salad and some mutual tales of Love & Life & walking The Way …

I am learning more & more worthwhile reason for being as I go along … Reality is so powerful, and yet so many of us choose to continually distract ourselves from the same. So whenever I feel trapped or lost, all I have to do is face Reality [with both humility and boldness] and a path opens up again.” ~ James
