The Train, The Leap, The Way Ahead …
3 weeks of Spanish life ebb and flow has seen me releasing the need to post, and instead focusing on the moments, deep breaths and divine views and ways of this incredible part of the world. Until now. I’ve finally figured out how this posting bit works via phone (as no computer will travel on this path), and now I can share as I’m called. This was the post on the train, and 3 days, 1 back strain, a million wild revelations and a shell of a website conjured, I’m coming to and catching up. So many stories of the simple and grand sort and for those who wander along with me, Buen Camino. The Way of this blog, life, and the in between moments are not so much about a physical place but a sacred space within. Wonder and magnificence are allll around us and as we still, breathe, listen and follow where the wise and whispering Friend leads, we are on an Adventure of a lifetime. Let’s hold hands, count down from 3, and leap, shall we? Oh I have a feeling grand things are in store. 3 2 1 Go….
After 25 years, soul sisters reunite. Oh the incredible weeks we’ve shared (more on that soon), but she was there to send me on my Camino way, tracks my adventure and is ever my Spanish translator and guide. Grateful beyond words for my Minerva.
A wild flutter of anticipation fills my being; I am suddenly aware of the extraordinary feat it’s been to here.
A whisper from my soul since a girl, a dream brilliant, beckoning, as a young woman, held steady through 20 years of establishing life as entrepreneur, wife and mother … and now …
Can this be real?
Everyone speeding across countryside, on this divine transport of the modern age, alongside me, is so calm. It’s just another day in the life of these vibrant, blessed people. Me? It’s taking everything in me not to bust a move in the aisles.
I cannot help but think that my divine Daddykins, a man who embodied the Spanish spirit, is smiling and clicky-clacking right with me (amazed that trains don’t make that sound any longer and carry us along to our dreams in a flash).
Next stop …. Madrid. Whaaaa? Hee hee
I remember you talking about doing this trail when we talked about dreams in San Diego. I absolutely love that you are now DOING IT!! I can’t wait to hear and and see about your adventure,; the good and the and bad, the people you meet and the realizations you come to. All will be life changing.
Awwww my Kim… indeed, such a long dream held. I’m on my Way now and am balancing moment-being with sharing as I’m called … but each step, view around every corner, the kindred souls along the Way, the whisperings that come … all even more incredible than I could have imagined. So fabulous to share it with you, my sister of memory, heart and soul. Thank you for connecting, dear Kim. Xoxo yours always, j
