Then I read that you had changed the last paragraph. Is it possible that you can tell us what the original ending was? Perhaps you can tell us how to find the original. Thank you anyway for sharing this. I love the picture too. I so enjoyed this until the last sentence. Then I read that you had changed the last paragraph.

However, there is no time like right now, and your stories on minimalism and the benefits it brings to the soul have inspired me. I was a Creative Director for a large corporation until 2001, when I became disabled with chronic pain after a failed back surgery. After 9 years, I've allowed myself to become complacent and have almost lost that creative, energetic, motivated person I once was. I sincerely hope to dig in and find that exciting woman, and to use my creativity to sustain my livelihood once again. Thank you for your inspiration.

I am very glad that I have found your guest post on ZenHabits and discovered your website. The story made me think about the blessings in my life and look at them from different perspectives. I definitely have room for improvement but generally the blessings that I already have are priceless for me. This is a wonderful story.
