Shoveling Manure

July 10, 2018 Uncategorized

Spring comes late at high latitude and high elevation. Pics from William in Calgary.

 

Yup, that is on my list today.  We have a lot of pilgrims coming and trail cleanup is always happening.  Of course, Spain has manure, maybe I should leave it.

We have a walk this afternoon at four.  The daughter of my oldest friend is coming.  I haven’t seen her in many ages.  And maybe Father David will show up, he’s been threatening lately.   We could talk about his last homily.  One line of it has stuck with me bigtime, “healing is a form of reconciliation”.  Let’s talk more about that Father.

What is that line from Phil’s Camino, “healing is being reconciled with the bigger picture”?  I think that we are on the same page there.  Perhaps there is more that we can uncover if we work at it.  Some of this stuff is akin to, “you can have your cake and eat it too”.  In other words, they are way better than they even first appear.

Sometimes words fail us and that is a sign.  If we are talking about a topic that is hard for us to articulate then perhaps we are on uncharted ground, it is an area that we are unfamiliar with, we don’t have the words.  I think that is an interesting place to be, a place of discovery where we are not just shoveling our usual manure.

I think that Wiley and Hanna are back from their short California trip.  They got in at midnight so they are probably sleeping in.  Maybe they need some milk from town?

Miss you, love you, Felipe.
