Loving The Simple Life

Have you ever stopped to consider how living simply might allow you to enjoy life more?  Let me tell you a story.

Once upon a time, there was a woman who was quite successful at what she did.  There were many things about her life, though, that she wished could be change.  To begin with, she really dreaded commuting back and forth to work.  Secondly, there were some days that she longed to live a free life - but she was addicted to the things that she could buy with all the money she earned at her job.

Finally, things got to be overwhelming.  She saved money, quit her job, and moved to a small town where she didn't know a soul...there, she began working toward a freer, more simple life.  Today, she enjoys her small house, her little garden, her backyard chickens, and her freelance lifestyle.  While her bank account is nothing like it once was, her "life" account is full. 

I hope you enjoy the upcoming posts about the simple pleasures the freelance life affords.
