Yesterday, I watched this movie again and it is always good to see it. It's a beautiful story of the human condition, all its ups and downs. The loss, the pain, the struggles, the tears, the joy, the laughter, and love. When you do things out of love, rather than fear, that's all there is.
In a poignant scene of "The Way", Tom lays a stone at the foot of the Cross of Iron (Cruz del ferro), as is tradition for pilgrims, and recites the prayer:
“Lord, may this stone, a symbol of my efforts on the pilgrimage that I lay at the foot of the cross of the Saviour, one day weigh the balance in favor of my good deeds when the deeds of my life are judged. Let it be so.”
Amen.
