The sum

The sum of all parts equal the whole. 

I am such a rebel and detest labels that I fought what I was doing. I didn't see myself in the portrait I was a observer looking in.

I fought my presence in the Camino. I let some of my insecurities come to the surface and I fought the terrain. 

I fought, I fought because that's what a fighter does.

Yet to wage a war against ourselves is futile, it's a battle that has no glory.

I lost yesterday but today. I see that my arrogance was the heaviest thing I was carrying.

I am humbled by the experience and don't know when I will take up this quest again. Maybe next year, maybe next hour.

I just know that when I do I will approach it with humility in my heart......
