Once again the air is filled with the sound of foreign voices. They’re excited, they want to talk. Sometimes they ask where I’ve started. When I say St. Jean I hear a little sucking in of the breath and then a low “Wow, you’re doing the whole thing.”

And I say to myself, “I have been doing this for quite a while.” My rhythm is that of the Camino.
Walk Wash Eat Sleep
What will my rhythm be when I return home?
I did hit a milestone today.

100 kilometers to the Cathedral of Santiago.
Buen Camino

I am me, a person with love for others, a passion to be creative, and a desire to be a cheerleader for others. I’m a wife, a mommy, and a grandma (you can call me by my grandma name “Lady M”).
I’m on a search to grow and connect more fully with God. I didn’t grow up particularly church, married a man who had, and we raised our three daughters in the church. I found a place to belong in the church and somehow discerned a call to go to seminary. I received a Masters of Arts and Religious Communication (MARC). I went on to become ordained as a deacon in the United Methodist Church and served in media ministry and Christian education. As clergy I found that I didn’t have a place to belong in the church so I left the United Methodist Church in 2010.
I still believe and I’m still on a quest to draw closer to God. And I’m going to walk the Camino de Santiago.

The final leg of the journey! You and Glen are doing something amazing and I can’t wait to hear all about it when you get back. Buen Camino!
Love the milestone you hit and shared!
Your photo to go with the following made me pause to consider how we often ignore or fail to acknowledge and celebrate when we reach a milestone!
“I did hit a milestone today.”
