This is a beautiful relief set into the side of the monument that faces Santiago. I really like the way dozens of pilgrims have steadily filled the pilgrim‘s bowl to the point where it is now overflowing in an abundance of detachment and gratitude … ―I have held many things in my hand, and have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God‘s hands, I still possess.‖ ~ Martin Luther 236
―Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience … and freedom in all just pursuits.‖ ~ Thomas Jefferson We made it! Roughly 555 miles in 38 days (37 walking days for Mom; 33 for me) … Mom, you are amazing! Camino, you are even more so … ―I think the important thing now is to have a celebration and then with determination move into our common, shared, different future.‖ ~ Michael Higgins ―Perhaps home is not a place, but simply an irrevocable condition.‖ ~ James Baldwin 237
