May 23: Transformation – Pilgrimage of Resurrection(A Creative Journey through the Easter Season)

Word for Today: Transformation

If entered into mindfully and with a whole heart, each encounter on the road has the potential to transform. The pilgrim returns home not with all the answers. Instead, they receive better questions; questions that bring the pilgrimage experience into daily life and reveal depth in all they see around them.

—Christine Valters Paintner, The Soul of a Pilgrim: Eight Practices for the Journey Within
