My training for the Camino in September is in full swing and I was up at 6am this morning to get in 6-7 miles whilst trying to beat the heat of the Baja.
I'm enjoying the many hours of quiet time while I listen to the sounds of the birdlife or the clanging of the cowbells in the distance. I notice I don't always like my mind cluttered with music or the stories I'm listening to on Audible.
But today my own mind was cluttered with judgement of myself for thoughts that were not positive or even kind.
And then the words "mercy" and "grace" gonged loud and clear in my head...
so, true to my style of naming anything dear to me, I decided to name my walking poles Mercy and Grace, since they're going to be my closest companions for the next 5 months!
Soon after my decision I happened upon this heart at the top of Flat Top Mountain that cheered me on and reminded me of all that is good!
I feel tearful as I write those words...
it's quite a journey I'm on...
I want to keep it honest.
