I finished listening to "I'll Push You" by Patrick Gray and Justin Skeesuck.  

I purchased the book because the backdrop is The Way; The Camino Santiago.  A 500 mile hike in Spain.  I am drawn to this experience and love to read about it.

Their journey is different for one friend is in a wheelchair. But that isn't what makes it so different; it is their friendship. 

I love how the journey of 500 miles connects all those who hike the trail. 

What I am most drawn to is how honest and authentic this path makes most.  It strips away the facade and busyness of life, as each persons is traveling in the same direction.

Each are carrying their own weights and difficulties, and each is working to lighten the load; both inner and outer.

The travelers are on their own journey while walking the same path. 

The path is the same, the travelers unique.

A life changing journey while walking.

I would love to experience this when I retire. How awesome to be able to do this with a friend. I am not sure I would be brave enough to go it alone; unless I was part of a group.

Knowing this may be on the horizon, I need to move more and continue growing strong muscles.

Pre-Camino growing.
