If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.”

I needed to see this today. I’m not liking my life very much right now and I’ve been too scared to make changes. This helps. My thanks.

I needed this! At times, when I see other women going off to work, I wonder if I should have made a career in something. But the truth is, I love being a homemaker. I love being at home. And I am very lucky to have been able to choose my simple lifestyle.
Thanks, Shirley!

Congratulations on aligning your life with your values! I am thoroughly enjoying your blog and deeply appreciate your serene photos and inspiring words. I’m endeavoring to do the same and am grateful for all the blessings of the letting go I’ve done thus far. I am also grateful for Dr. Rao’s teachings and site which led me to yours.
