Before and after you became an author, you continue to travel around the world. Which travel was most influential to you? Would you please describe when, where, and what was most shocking and devastating to you?
Today. All wanderings are important since you can extract from anything in life a teaching, something that will make sense to you.
You have to look at life itself is a pilgrimage. Every day is different, every day can have a magic moment, but we don’t see the opportunity, because we think: “Oh this is boring I’m just commuting to work.” But we are all on a pilgrimage whether we like it or not and the target, or goal, the real Santiago, if you like, is death. You must get as much as you can from the journey, because – in the end – the journey is all you have. It doesn’t matter what you accumulate in terms of material wealth, because you are going to die anyway, so why not live? When you realize that you can be brave and that is the first tenant of any spiritual quest – to take risks.
Yes, BE. Thank you for this beatiful morning.

I think that every trip we travel is worth remembering because we can see things that we don’t ordinarily see in television, it opens a lot more. It opens our minds to the thoughts that suddenly comes rushing in.
When I go to school, I’m ride with my mom and dad in their car with tinted windows but I love the trip home specially when I ride the jeep because even though I’m used to the surroundings I still see things that grab my attention. All in all, it opens up who you are.

Hey Irish
The answer to your question is in todays entries:
The Lord smiles contentedly
because this what He wants,
that everyone should take responsability
for their own lives.
(Fifth Mountain)
Start doing whwt you want to do today and always follow that even if what you want changes and becomes new things, your experiences will soon show you which path is yours and God will reveal himself to you while you are on the path but you must start the journey today.
The best of Irish to you.
