Despierta, Caminante! Sacude el sopor de tu cuerpo que yace sin sueños. ¡Que se alce el espíritu!
Mira alrededor: los tenues rayos de un nuevo día van empolvando el cielo oscuro. Respira hondo, como tu primer aliento, tomado con temor y con triunfo, hace una eternidad.
Salpica agua fría sobre tu rostro y pasa tus manos húmedas por el cabello. ¡Ponte erguido! ¡Vientre adentro, hombros atrás!
Prepárate para la prueba que te aguarda. El gozo del camino comienza con el plan. ¿Qué planetas serán las piedras del paso? ¿Qué estrellas señalarán la ruta? ¿Bajo qué galaxias habrás de dormir?
No mires atrás. Todo cuanto hemos deseado se ha cumplido. Hoy es el nuevo comienzo. El mañana ya está sobre nosotros.
¡Despierta!
El Peregrino 
Well Jaime it sound like you are trying to wake up your spirit for another El Camino. So when do you plan to leave? I have asked my Barbie’s sister Geri for a translation- — but so far just a short explanation of “waking up a spirit to travel down a road that may or not be visible; so make your own road. All is well around here, or that is what I’m being told. No news is good news. The weather has decided to go from extremely hot to just hot. But it’s a dry heat. 😉 Sold my Cobra to a man in Houston for his wife. Bought another car that arrived and wouldn’t start because of a dead battery. Like some unique things, they installed the battery and built the car around it. Sort of like one of the four hydraulic pumps on a F4 aircraft. Put the pumps by the jet engines and build the plane around it. (I will send some pictures of the car when I get ready.) If you are going on a new pilgrimage, please be safe and say a prayer for all of us sinners. The Tortoise Whisperer

When you say you sold your car to a man in Houston for his wife, I would have thought the car was worth two wives at least.

Yes, the car is worth two wives. But I have to be clear- he bought my car FOR his wife. He is a good man-“happy wife, happy life”. Maybe while being in Houston, you and I can go to his dealership. I have found out, either he will be happy or want to fight.
