The Beauty of the Journey

Trisha is a planner. But when she decided to walk the Camino, she just wanted to experience what was to come. The alone time and silent prayer through physical and emotional suffering nearly broke her. However, she realized what really broke her when the walk was over.

This is Dr. Trisha Ruiz. She is the Senior Director of Veteran Services at the University of St. Thomas – Houston. She shares how walking the Camino de Santiago forced her to be aware of the beauty of pain on the journey.
