The Author of this Book of Poetry was born and raised in rural Stephentown, in Upstate New York, with four older sisters, and a younger brother. As a country girl, Norma was always interested in Reading and Writing and being Outdoors with Nature. Her love of Poetry is reflected in this inspiring, and often humorous collection, spanning over five decades, where she shares some of her hopes, dreams and sorrows, giving the Lord Jesus Christ all the Glory. As a young Mother she was touched by the Holy Spirit when her children were required, with her help, to learn daily Bible verses for the Five Day Club held at their home by a Christian teenager from CEF (Child Evangelism Fellowship). The verse she vividly remembers is Luke 19:10: "For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost". Shortly after that both she and her husband answered an Altar Call, at their local church, giving their hearts to the Lord. They did not know that the entire Church Body had been praying for their Salvation, as they had been taking their kids to Sunday School, but not attending! The Author's Enjoyment, along with her Eight Grandchildren and her two Living Children, include Bible Study, Crafting, Sewing, Music, Camping and exploring the New England Seashore and the Adirondack Mountains. A married lady of 52 years to a loving husband, this book will culminate her desire for this Collection of Poetry to be finally published. As a Contributing Author of several Anthologies, other Publications include Poetry published in the Barrister Magazine, The County News and Views, The Country Register, the Troy Record, and Quill Books. Norma and her husband Bill worship the Lord at New Hope for Life in the rural Town of Nassau, New York where the Holy Spirit has inspired many of her Poems and Songs of Praise included in this Collection.

Just try to experience your time off differently, throw your fears and prejudices overboard, don't buy your vacation with your hard-earned money. Live at least the few days a year not planned and structured. Just live into the day. This book is not a travel guide. Why barefoot? Quite simply. For some time now, we've taken a liking to long hikes but time and time again we've been painfully reminded during or after hikes that it's not that easy; especially for the bones. The only solution: More and more expensive equipment. I want to share with you this adventure, experiment, with all the experiences and knowledge I have made. I am not a doctor or a healer, but an engineer, however I know a lot about mechanics and forces. So I look at the influences of barefoot walking from a purely physical point of view, just as the engineer does. I, on the other hand, want to systematically strengthen the walking apparatus and thus ensure that I get fewer complaints when walking. After a short period of training, I felt the effect and was fit enough to feel good for the Camino. I had no significant discomfort, neither during, nor after the hike. The taped knees, the limping people and the stories of painkillers encouraged me to implement the decision I had made earlier to put the experiences in writing. The stories are written in the form of a diary, and in retrospect I realize how much the Camino has changed me. But there's something else, I started out to walk a well-maintained, easy trail that had good infrastructure. But I discovered the Camino. Humanity, humility and a closeness that I had not experienced in this form for a long time. An experience that is difficult to convey, but so exhilarating that I decided to walk the path regularly.
