‘The Way’-a movie that started me thinking…..

In 2010 I spent January through April at my friends John and Nancy’s guest house in the Applegate Valley in in Southern Oregon writing the health programs for our non-profit helping kids with their health, DirectionFive. It was then that my sister Margaret raved about the movie, The Way, with Martin Sheen. It begins, she says, with the death of his son. I tuned out after that as nothing else could convince me to watch it.

Skip forward a couple years.

I admit, I have watched it 3 times in a week. I keep watching and really listening. This ‘Path’ is meant for me…

Personally I feel I have always been on a spiritual path, sometimes more in tuned than others, but now is when I was meant to know about this Path-the Camino de Santiago. I also believe that spirituality-the belief in something greater than yourself; the connectedness to a larger reality, is important to our health.

I will be on this Path next May.

Margaret says she’ll join me for part of it. You?
