my theme song for the meseta
this song has definitely been part of my camino, but now it is just playing all the time in my head! it is such a beautiful one of rickie and michael´s inspirations, and is imminently singable
(like all their songs). i can feel my own judgements of myself falling away. i am now allowing myself to do whatever i need to do without judging it. if i walk slowly, so be it. if i only walk a short distance, so be it. i f i take the bus, so be it. it´s all falling away from me, and i am rising up! i´m not sure exactly what that will look like, but i know that i am rising! here´s the song. i will add the link when i can . special thanks to the lovely cathy means for helping me with the words i was missing. mostly i just sing the chorus over and over. hope you like it as much as i do.
peace and blessings-

Falling Away from Me
All of the ways I walked in pain,
All of the times I felt I couldn't go on,
The guilt, the shame,
And all the things that held me down,
Falling away from me, are falling away
From me. I'm rising up!
It's all falling away, away from me.
Repeat
Heavenly Spirit,
there is something I want to say to you
Words cant contain it,
But I'll do the best that I can do
You lift me up like the vastness of the ocean
ANd you heal my heart and I"m filled with such devotion
All of the ways I walked in pain,
All of the times I felt I couldn't go on,
The guilt, the shame
And all the things that held me down,
Falling a way from me, are falling away from
From me I'm rising up!
RISE UP!
Its all falling away
Away from me.
What I'm tryin to say, Lord,
is beyond imagination
Its more than I prayed for
That such joy could fill my being
You poured a blessing that I'm just beginning to see
I've got to RISE ON UP and accept that I am free
All of the ways I walked in pain
All of the times I felt I couldn't go on
The guilt the shame,
And all the things that held me down,
Falling away from me, are falling away
from me. I'm rising up!
Rise UP!
It's all falling away,
Away from me---e.

I think the documentary is going to have to have a CD to go with it. (Besides the book, of course.) Love to hear that you are lounging about and having people take care of you. I am beginning to think that the people who got sent on this camino as penance must have been in for a big surprise. And no doubt kept quiet about it. Thinking of you and wondering how to make garlic soup, much love, Y/M&D
