    Two websites I think you might enjoy...Abbey of the Arts (Christine Paintner is an author who has really offered some terrific online courses - some can be done at your own pace -
    on contemplative photography) The other is from more of a Buddhist perspective Miksang (Michael Wood has been spearheading this contemplative photography movement) I'm afraid neither answers your wish for a new job, but both may help sustain you with in it...May it be so! -- Laura

  4. Fingers crossed for you dear Joy!
    This is exactly the sort of professional challenge I am aiming for, and as you know, dreams can come true.
    Did you make a vision board for this particular dream? It could help! (and I'd love to see it :))
    I missed reading your posts, but as my laptop crashed I couldn't be on the internet for a while ...
    Hug from Belgium and please, keep faith! Miracles can happen! That's exactly what I wish for you, as you have so much potential as a multi-talented and gifted woman.
