Have you ever had the feeling like the big wide universe is testing you to see what you’re made of?
To see how much you really want something?
To test if you’re willing to go all the way with something?
Well, I went along to this Camino meet up group about 6 months ago just after I booked my tickets. A fellow pilgrim who has walked the Camino said to me “Once you buy your ticket Laura- your Camino begins”….. dant dant danttttt (you know the sound I’m trying to make)!
I nervously laughed, politely changed the subject and I haven’t been back to one of those meet ups since. Ha.
However, since I have booked my tickets the truth is- I’ve had a lot of physical challenges crop up!
A wild tooth procedure that ate up a lot of money and stress, a medical procedure, shin splints that were being treated yesterday morning before I flew out, some emotional baggage that came up LOUDLY and was ready to be cleared and… a blister! I’ve not EVER had a blister in all the time I’ve been walking (33 years) and when I got off my flight in Madrid this morning I could barely walk- this blister had set up home in the middle of my right foot! WTF?!
Please, Please, Please don’t get me wrong- this is not a whingy piece of writing- this is a bit of an affirmation to myself, you and the cheeky universe- THAT IM IN!!!
Regardless of the physical, emotional stuff that has come up- I AM IN!!!!
If there’s a will there’s a way!
So I’ll keep following my nose, eating incredible pizza, enjoying the gorgeousness of this beautiful country Spain and keep walking BLISSTERFULLY (minus the TER) one step at a time!
You too yeah! ️
