Along The Camino/At Basecamp

These stories are my response to walking the Camino de Santiago. It is not a practical guide, nor a series of interviews, nor a memoir. It is story, inspired by my real experiences and infused occasionally with a layer of holy imagination. I know it is worthwhile because I am not just hoping to tell my own story. I am hoping to tell more of the whole story, glimpse more of the whole truth. So, welcome pilgrim! Because I’m a firm believer that whether or not you have already walked or are interested in walking the Camino de Santiago, or a pilgrimage at all, guess what? …YOU'RE ALREADY ON ONE! Helpful hint: If you love descriptive or philosophical ponderings..stick to the even-numbered episodes. If you appreciate imagination, faith and asking what could be...go for the odds. But I hope you can listen to all.
Sincerely-Hollee Brock

A word about me in the words of Jehanne de Quillan (in the introduction to The Gospel of the Beloved Companion)- "...being neither an academic nor a scholar by profession, I realized that rather than a hindrance, the slack granted me a freedom that would likely be unavailable to those closely guarding the reputations within their chosen field. Not having a reputation to lose means that one can proceed with one’s work without concern for the ripples that it might generate among those who oppose one’s conclusions.”

“The word, “incarnation” followed me around for the year preceding my pilgrimage. It followed me because it was trying to convince me that I am one. I am one and guess what if you have a body, so are you. So it might surprise you that I had to be reminded of this. .....Somewhere along the way, I had conflated my thoughts about life with life. And that’s when Flannery’s voice unapologetically slammed open the door of my bobblehead and said,“Your beliefs will be a light by which you see, but they will not be what you see, and they will not be a substitute for what you see.”
