retired from work, not life
Hi everyone, I have reluctantly abandoned Terri’s fabulous Photo Challenge this week for an opportunity to Guest Post on Right of the Middle by Min. Her blog is about finding balance within the mind, body and spirit, which is a subject I feel passionate about. Min is a very accomplished lady who has many talents and I think you will appreciate her ‘realness.’ She is also a generous and gracious host and I am honored to be her guest author this week.
In keeping with the theme of Min’s blog, I have written about my Zen; the thing that calms my mind and soothes my spirit. If you are a regular reader of my blog, you know that I have a lot of joy boosters in my life, but one stands out as special. Without spilling all the beans, I will simply leave you with this and hope you will hop over to Right of the Middle and check out what I shared with Min’s readers.
Thanks, until next time. XOXO
