Life Reimagined
On the Camino de Santiago, we experience ourselves and life so differently. We return home, we feel alive, transformed but only for a time. The unique gifts and wisdom gained, as time goes by, dissipate into a memory of a distant time and place. We find ourselves falling right back into the same old patterns and behaviours.
Why?
Often it is because we fail to recognize that our Camino experience began a hero’s/heroine’s journey of personal transformation. Important steps still must be taken, and deeper questions answered, if we are to fully transition back into our everyday life. It is for this reason the ‘real’ Camino journey begins upon the arrival home.
‘A ‘hero’ now is largely about being bold, muscular, rich, famous, talented, or ‘fantastic’ by himself, and often for himself, whereas the classic hero is one who ‘goes the distance,’ whatever that takes, and then has plenty left over for others. True heroism serves the common good, or it is not really heroism at all.’ - Richard Rohr
Camino Wisdom Stories
Story helps define who we are, makes us laugh and cry, opens our hearts, inspires us to do more, clarifies confusion in our lives and heals and transforms. As a pathway to wholeness, story is indispensable to life, especially when we may not be feeling so complete.
Our Camino stories bring practical wisdom to our daily lives; for times that reflect the challenge of the climb, the monotony of the mundane and the reward of wholeheartedly embracing life.
‘Thank you for all of this, the stories, your organizing and holding of these events, and everyone's honesty and openness to share. These stories, links, quotes, - all are super helpful and impactful for every day in our lives, not just on the Camino, as we all know.’
