Andrew Lang on gratitude, wonder + unmasking the inner critic -- I think heartbreak can be an incredible gateway for wonder to emerge. I’m sure this resonates with folks who have experienced loss (which is all of us, to differing extents). I think of the moment when one’s grief and anger at the disastrous opens us to a new way of being in the world - one that is more open-eyed and present than before.
Lovely, thank you. I appreciate Andrew's experience of gratitude and wonder on the Camino. Grief and healing as a bereaved mother is what sent me there too, exactly four years ago. I was surprised by how much I appreciated not knowing what was up ahead. Walking in expectant wonder was new then, and takes real intention now. It's what I most want to hold onto from my Camino.

What a journey that must have been! Grateful for you.
