WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A PILGRIM?
to travel lightly
to walk slowly
to move forward and inward
to be attentive to the way ahead
to be grateful for what I have encountered
to be present to the here and now
to seek communitas
to receive and to give hospitality
to be generous with my time
to be comfortable with becoming
and prepared for the struggles that accompany it
to be open to transformation
to be present to the Mystery
to know that there is always more
to be always on the way
to be a pilgrim
