Day 14 - Castrojeríz to Frómista
I'm in a part of Spain called the Meseta Central. They are high plains full of fertile (despite being rocky) fields. Unfortunately, when walking, this means it's boring! I do welcome the lack of incline as uphill is very tiring and downhill can be slow and hard on the knees. But the lack of scenery is getting annoying. It is beautiful. Just getting to be the same thing over and over. Once I've seen something on the Meseta, I see the same exact field for the next 5 kilometers! I welcome a change in landscape, but I will admit that the Meseta is offering me an incredible time to think.
Part of the reason I came on this trip was to become closer to God. What I've realized by walking through so much and varied land and by reflecting on my life, is that when you seek God, you don't usually find Him. He finds you when He wants to and when you need Him, even without asking. I don't expect everyone to agree with me, but it's just a little observation and realization I've made about God in my life so far on this journey.
On I walk.

From the life lessons I've learned, God didn't go away then found me again when He wanted to. I was the one who went away, but He was always there when I was ready to find Him again.
