Theme for the pilgrimage is known

Sometimes an answer is right in front of you, but it takes a while to find it. This was also the case in my search for a suitable theme for each stage of the pilgrimage from Amsterdam to 's-Hertogenbosch.

I don't know how many times I've had my uncle Frans van der Lugt's book 'Who are you, o love' in my hands and sifted through it. It was already a fact for me that one of the stages would have the theme of love. But this weekend the last piece of the puzzle fell into place for me. Uncle Frans looked and I look at love from different points of view. And those starting points will be divided into themes over the various stages. It is therefore inevitable that pilgrimage from the main theme 'Who are you, o love' will be.

The miracle of the dice

Someone I once met gave me a dice as a present. Something I didn't immediately understand, but after her explanation I never will forget.

"A die has different faces, each with its own number of pips. If you place a die in the middle of your conversation partner(s), everyone looks at a different side of this die. This is exactly how people view it from their own opinions and thoughts. experience our own life. No one has the truth except his or her own truth. So let's inspire each other in life with a different view of it."

I can't wait, curious as I am, for all the thoughts and opinions of all hikers on the subject of 'love'.

The subjects

Perhaps the topics that I now have in mind will change, because it is just what the day needs.

  1. Love for yourself
  2. Love for listening and hearing
  3. Love for your successes
  4. Love for your family
  5. Love for your lover and friends
  6. Love for your environment
