Recently, I took a break and stepped away…A couple thousands miles away to be exact!
All the way down to Alamo TX, visiting family. I’ll be sharing more photos and lessons from this trip for a good while, I always learn so much when traveling 🚘
One of our excursions was somewhere a little out of the norm for vacations. In the middle of not much is a little shrine for Don Pedro Jaramillo (also know as Don Pedrito). I don’t quite remember how he came up in my studies, but I knew I wanted to learn more!
*With the timing of Easter this weekend, I think it’s also a good time to talk about idols ;) *
Don Pedrito was known for his “cures” which consisted of 1/2 catholic faith and 1/2 simple home remedies like herbs and veggies, drinking water, and taking baths. He never charged and often gave away remedies and donations received like food. I take a lot of inspiration from Don Pedrito and his simple low cost methods always crediting God.
Christ is my muse and highest idol. Don Pedrito is very inspirational in his methods and care. I stay rooted but of course still enjoy learning from others!
