Thank you for your beautiful message and photos, Joselito and putting to words what my experience was on my European trip this summer. We didn’t visit religious sites as a goal per se, but we did ascend the 686 steps to Our Lady of the Remedies in Lamego, Portugal (in 100+ heat!), visited castles and walls that told centuries of stories of faith, and stayed in a square in Barcelona facing a beautiful cathedral. I had the same feeling of history and diversity that you expressed, especially in Portugal with centuries of influence by the Moors, Spanish, Brazilians, English, Dutch, etc. — all with their different “brands” of faith, values and principles of living. Perhaps LIFE is a pilgrimage?
