I lost my job last year after a 32-year stay at the same company. I've been pondering my next move for a while.

Spending some time in a rocking chair by the ocean with a soothing breeze and a warm sun helped to bring a peaceful perspective to the question of "What's next?"

Thanks for looking...........Chris

Steve........I came up with a few next steps.....get my new college freshman settled into his new life; trim the spent blooms from the plants in my garden; enjoy the music that my younger son makes and be thankful that my husband like to cook!

From the chair in the surf, I see a new job on my horizon, too!

Thanks for looking.

WB and James, thanks for the comments. A chair in the sand can bring a lot into focus.

Chris, your lovely image and story reminds me of a Japanese haiku I've always loved:

Since my house burned down
I now own a better view
of the rising moon.

All the best to you.

Beverly... what a lovely haiku. I'll post it at my desk. I'm glad this image has spoken to you.
