Change of plans

Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat Pray Love, inspired me to spend three months in India working, learning and meditating at an ashram. I applied to the OSHO Meditation Resort in Pune and was accepted for a 3 month program. After a few days in Pune, I decided OSHO wasn't the best fit for me. So now I have three months to play! Back to the drawing board.

Being around the ashram was fun. I met lots of interesting people. Here quitting your job to travel or move to another country is the norm. Every other person either doesn't know what they are going to do or is a massage therapist. If they're not a massage therapist, they do feng shui or paint mandolins. It's so much fun to meet people who are on a spiritual journey or are in a similar stage of "what should I do with my life."

I am in a very similar boat--"What should I do with my life?" Your path to find the answer sounds a lot more interesting than mine.
