Optional route - July 12

There are multiple options on the Camino. Maybe you want to take a direct route next to a highway. Maybe you want the hilly quieter route. Both lead to the same destination but the distances and hills and food options may vary. Which way do you go?

There’s no right answer. Everyone has different priorities and values. The best route for one might be the worst for another. Choosing wisely for yourself means possibly choosing a different way than others.

We chose a route through vineyards today. It was beautiful. I’ve done both routes over the years and now prefer the agricultural route. It speaks of life, of beauty, of abundance. It’s not the fastest but it is more rich in life.

Choose wisely and choose that which fills you, even if it takes more time.
