AT this age and time, we always look for meaning in what we do. This writer is now walking the streets of Spain for a few days as part of the Camino de Santiago. It is a pilgrimage to follow the way of St. James. Pilgrims do it for many reasons. According to many sources, "hitting the road requires a fundamental attitude of abandonment. Abandonment is being at the mercy of something greater than oneself, it is to stop oneself from being the focal point of one's life. One must admit that one does not govern one's life, or the Camino."

"Dare to know" is the English translation of this column's Latin title. It tells us that no matter what age, learning is a continuous process and journey to enrich oneself. Walking the Camino has intensified my curiosity on some Latin phrases that can help in one's life journey.
