I headed out once more and was walking through an interesting lakeside park along another smoothly paved walking path when I sensed (possibly overheard) two people coming up behind me. This was no surprise, of course — seeing as how I was still in a great bit of pain and was limping along rather slowly, […]
I wake easily this morning, enjoy a late breakfast, and then Noelle drives me back to exact spot where I had left The Path the day before. I know that there is only one direction of travel at this point — southward with Lake Geneva on my left — and yet I am happy nonetheless […]
This morning was one where I flowed along The Camino’s ever-changing yet always Beauty-full path. Admittedly still more than a bit limpy (and thus still more than bit wobbly), I did so smoothly nonetheless; with a smile on my face that was almost as large & serene as the one glowing forth from my Heart […]
It is critical to remember that it is not WHAT we do or don’t do, but rather WHY we do or don’t that matters. Just as important, regarding that all-important WHY, is the simple Truth that everything done or not done for others will ultimately bring Peace and is therefore Right, and that everything done […]
Walking through the village of Buchillon on this clear-yet-blustery day, I came across the restaurant Au Vieux Navire (roughly translated — “Aboard the Old Ship”) and decided to enter and ask for some water to help fuel my Journey. This turned out to be yet another relatively high-end establishment, at the time sprinkled with small […]
Life Tip: Avoid letting pass unattended any opportunity to beam the Message of selfless LOVE … 😉 “Just as it is a deeply poignant sin to bodily walk a mile into Nature without residing there in spirit, so too is it a great & terrible tragedy to pass by another without deeply sharing your Soul.” […]
And once again I came across a more-than-merely-tall tree that had recently fallen across the path and blocked my way, only this time there was absolutely no way around (the tree’s trunk — obscured by vines in the picture attached below — was a good three feet in diameter and it extended all the way […]
It’s best for all of us to avoid slipping into feelings of arrogance or overconfidence after successfully navigating any particular challenge or obstacle, and yet nowhere is this more true* than while walking a peace pilgrimage — a Truth with which I was confronted on this very day. For no sooner had my two impromptu […]
I once again thought that my journey forwards had ended for the day; once more I thought that I was going to have to turn around and retrace many hours of steps previous in order to find an open way. And yet before I did so I decided to look at the situation more closely, […]
I rolled into the small Swiss city of Rolle fully amazed over how the energy of The Way* continues to carry me so far each day on legs so injured and gimpy. I was pretty worn out by this time nonetheless, and headed straight for the local Catholic church … After resti8ng inside the same […]
After sitting awhile in joyful peace on the church’s parsonage stoop, fully immersed in a fountain of Gratitude rising up from within, I decided to head back into the sanctuary itself — to sit there awhile and decide whether to walk onward to town “next” or look elsewhere for a place to rest my head […]
