Saint James On My Mind Again
It was nice and cool an hour age with an overcast sky. That disappeared quickly and the sun is here again. More mowing and trimming for me today getting the grounds ready for the upcoming wedding and party. Everyday I bake myself to a nice golden brown in the peocess.
Well, St James celebrated with us yesterday. He’s a great guy. I just thought that I would say that. Wouldn’t it be great if a worthy actor could portray him in a one man show, sort of putting a face on him. Hey, maybe there is something like that out there. We could get him to talk about us modern day pilgrims and the latter day popularity of pilgrimage. Just a thought.
I am getting a chemo vacation next week to celebrate the wedding. So, I will have a month free just like I had in Spain. Dr Gold suggested it, the guy. I am just getting half way normal from treatment last Wednesday, over a week ago now.
Well, I need to get a move on it. Got fuel and sharp blades for the mower so look out world! Catch you guys tomorrow. Summer loves, Felipe.
In focusing on St. James, I came across this saying while on the Camino and haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. “If the founders of our religions came back today, would they recognize their work?” It reminds me of the importance of living life daily the way it was so easily lived on the Camino…A life filled with laughter, love, and peace. Aah…there is so much beauty in the gifts given to us from St. James!
Take care, Felipe!
Loretta ~ How goes it oh retired one? Hehe. Glad to hear from you. This reminds me of something I heard somewhere about how to read the Bible or one way to read the Bible. There were three levels. One, to read to find out just what it says. Two, to read and figure out what that means to me. And last to read and try and meet the author. Yes, there is something to be said about keeping in touch with our roots. Thanks. Hello to Bruce. Felipe.x
