Make the way or "go through"

The Way of Santiago, like all the ways of pilgrimage, is a route that begins from countless origins and has a final destination in Santiago de Compostela.

It is certainly a route that we can map, describe or document. But going through that route is not always synonymous with doing the Way. Make the Way always must be pilgrimage. Go to a Holy or Sacred destination, regardless of how each person understands that sacraality.

It would be enough to be aware of what leads each person to walk the Way and from there know how to distinguish between "travel it" or "do it."

The different forms of accreditation that exist to record that they have done the Way do not discriminate between those who travel it and those who do. For those who make the Way the value of such credits is for the person himself.

Where one can best keep the Credentials of the Way or hang the Compostel that is obtained in Santiago, it is in the heart of every pilgrim. That is where you should have your place to remind us and update us our Ways, what we experience making themand remind us where and with whom we live.
