<DIV><SPAN class=379483904-26032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am doing a paper
on pain and suffering in religion. My focus is on the camino. My
question is... would anyone be willing to share with me how they suffered on
the camino.. and how they got through it. I know this is an intensely
personal subject, I understand if people would prefer not to speak of
it. I am looking at this from a <STRONG>religious perspective</STRONG>.
I am interested in how you suffered (physically, emotionally,
spiritually...) and in the ways you got through it. How did you feel
when you arrived in Santiago? With regards to Saint James, was he a
pull for you to do this, did you feel that he would offer a miracle of healing
(however perceived), a reduced time in purgatory... Essentially
what were your reasons for putting yourself through physical
discomfort?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

for opinions other than my own, having walked in September 2001 and returning
again in June 2003. <SPAN class=379483904-26032003><FONT face=Arial
