Dispatches Del Camino (#31)

A few random things I have written in my journal throughout my time walking the Camino de Santiago.

— Humility is the natural, resting state of creation. Pride is man-made.

—Good sleep is worth more than good money.

—Your schedule doesn’t actually exist in spacetime. If you don’t believe this, try telling your schedule to a cat.

—You’re stronger than you realize, but not nearly as tough as you think.

—If it’s true that people’s opinions are like rear anatomical orifices, then it is also true that the advice they offer is similar to the output of the aforementioned bodily cavity.

—In some cultures, it is considered dignified, admirable, and even beautiful for a grown man to cry.

—The most important thing in life is to make life important.

—Walk more.

—You will never realize the meaning of “daily bread” until you don’t have any.

—Hapiness can be doubled, tripled, quadrupled, quintupled, and infinitely multiplied, if you give it away.

—Pain can be halved if you share it.

—If ever you’re confused, just remember, so is everyone else.

—You can’t do everything you thought you could. Neither can your wife.

—Slow down.

—Eat cheesecake.

—Weep as often as you are able. Enjoy every tear, especially the bitter ones. Tears are a gift.

—You have no idea how today will turn out, so pay no attention to your first impression of the day.

—Tomorrow has no mistakes in it.

—Find a beautiful place in nature every day, and sit there for a while. Even if this place is only in your mind.

—Water is good.

—If you’re going to stop and smell the flowers—and you definitely should—prepare to get run over by others.

—Talk to yourself. It’s good practice for how to treat others.

—Whenever you start to doubt whether you are enough, go visit an animal shelter.

—Nobody is in your life forever. Act accordingly.
