I have a dream that began to grow in my heart a few years ago. To move to a piece of property with a small modest home and design a garden around a small studio salon. A quiet meditative Japanese Garden to be specific. Whether it be an authentic Japanese Garden or not, I know it will be a quiet minimalistic garden, one that whispers to all that enter, that life is found in the quieting of our minds...the silencing of the noise created by all the ridiculous voices that surround us.
I don't feel compelled to knock doors down to make things happen anymore. But if such a door presents itself, I might just walk through it.
If it doesn't, I'm pleased to say that I'm okay with that also. I'm learning how to live in peace right where I am at.

May it be as you envision it, my friend!
We'll see Ron. As you have probably read on here before our present salon (my brother is the owner) is being forced to move. Our lease is up and will not be renewed next April. There is certainly going to be a change between now and then. Just don't know what it will look like yet.
The thought of renting another spot from someone that can move you out on a whim when something comes along that works out better for their bottom line just creates problems. And believe it or not even in this economic downturn, lease prices have just skyrocketed.
