Beatitudes of the Pilgrim

1.     Blessed are you pilgrim, if you discover that the “camino” opens your eyes to what is not seen.

2.     Blessed are you pilgrim, if what concerns you most is not to arrive, as to arrive with others.

3.     Blessed are you pilgrim, when you contemplate the “camino” and discover it is full of names, pathways, doorways, and dawns.

4.     Blessed are you pilgrim, when you don't have words to give thanks for everything that surprises you at every twist and turn of the way.

5.     Blessed are you pilgrim, if you search for the truth and make of the “camino” a “way”, in search of the one who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

6.     Blessed are you pilgrim if on the way you meet yourself and gift yourself with time, without rushing, so you can get in touch with your heart.

7.     Blessed are you pilgrim, if you discover that the “camino” holds a lot of silence: the silence of prayer and the silence to encounter God who is waiting for you.
