... and I would like to wish everyone the best of holidays. This is a season of joy and tears all mixed up in the hurriedness of shopping, cooking, wrapping etc. So much emotion all packed into a couple of months. Maybe we are so busy not feeling the rest of the year that we have to get it all out in a short piece of time. What ever the reason, it is here and we are zooming through it with the speed of light or we are sloughing through it wishing we didn't have to do this. What ever is the result know that if you decide to take on a thing like walking the Camino, this too will be your experience. This walk is a place to reflect on our natural ways. Maybe even try to make some changes, but alas that is up to you.
For me, I am looking for the time to clean up the last parts of my 'house'. Then I desire to replace the old mind/house with a new one. IN this new one I am soft yet strong, wise with no need to let anyone know this, kind, considerate, able to SEE why people do things therefore in my compassion I help if it is requested and walk on for those not ready. Understand joy and be joy, understand laughter and be laughter, understand all-encompassing love and be all-encompassing love and last but not least be grateful in all of life's many happenings.
Douglas Everett sums it up very nicely:
There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.
Happy Holidays to one and all and may your dreams and reality unite into one world.
