Choosing a different path

Just imagine one day you are working at a famous corporation for a famous CEO in busy Manhattan being exhausted by the fast paced life style, and then you're not. You have made the choice to give up a very lucrative job as editorial director of Martha Stewart Onmigraphics so that you can choose " a path towards things they don't necessarily pay you or pat you on the back for."
 In And I Shall Have Some Peace Here: Trading in the Fast Lane for My Own Dirt Road" , Margaret Roach shares the transformation that she underwent as she shed her corporate persona  to recreate her life living in her weekend country house upstate New York. She would immerse herself in her passion for gardening along with  learning how to accept the slower pace of life. Roach became a keen observor of the wildlife on her property and through the lessons these creatures offered, she learned to embrace change and welcomed the shedding of her old identity.
Out of her love of nature and gardening came the creation of her website, http://margaretroach.com/, that can connect one to links for the following:   In the Garden- her horticultural source for organic gardening inspiration,  Finding Peace - a place to find her thoughts about her transformation and hints for the rest of us ,  her  "corporate" link, and more.
  Check out her book and see what  you can discover even if you haven't quit your job.
