Buen Camino


3 weeks.
319 kilometers.
New friends.
New perspective.
New focus.

This trip to Spain was one, if not THE, hardest thing I've ever done. I learned so much about myself that I would have never known before. I learned that my mind is much stronger than I give it credit for. I was completely capable of convincing my body that it wasn't capable of doing what it needed to..... I am proud of myself for finishing this Camino. I am more proud of myself for not turning around and putting myself on the next plane home (also aided by the fact I didn't want to pay the fee!) I had plenty of time to think about the things that needed thinking and got to practice a little patience (something that I need to work on every day.) It helped put into perspective that I am expecting from myself and my own limitations. All in all, a great trip but not one I'll soon repeat.
