moving away or coming back

look

look as long as you can
at the friend you love
no matter whether that friend is moving away from you
or coming back toward you.

another strange gift that the Camino has given me … an invitation to look more closely at the world around me … near me, beneath me, above me, stretched out before me … and also nudging me (or shaking me) to have a good look at the curious universe within me. i have never lived in such wonder … well, maybe when i was five. it is good to be back.
