I am convinced that pilgrimage is still a bona fide spirit-renewing ritual. But I also believe in pilgrimage as a powerful metaphor for any journey with the purpose of finding something that matters deeply to the traveler. With a deepening of focus, keen prepartion, attention to the path below our feet, and respect for the destination at hand, it is possible to transform, even the most ordinary journey into a sacred journey, a pligrimage.

Our task in life is to find our deep soul work and throw ourselves headlong into it.

What is sacred is what is worthy of our reverence, what evokes awe and wonder in the human heart, and what, when contemplated, transforms us utterly.

Uncover what you long for and you will discover who you are.

Atonement is a journey of healing that moves from the pain between a victim and an oppressor, through forgiveness, the making of amends, the relief of anger and compassion for the victim, to deep reconciliation.

Pilgrimage is a powerful metaphor for any journey with the purpose of finding something that matters deeply to the traveler.

What every traveler confronts sooner or later is that the way we spend each day of our travel...is the way we spend our lives.
