Retirement
"is the point where a person stops employment completely. Retirement, a time to do what you want to do, when you want to do it, where you want to do it, and, how you want to do it."
Hence though retirement may be an ending, a closing, it is also a new beginning.
When you retire, think and act as if you were still working; when you're still working, think and act a bit as if you were already retired.
Personally for me,retirement has been a discovery of beauty as I never had the time before to notice the beauty of my grand kids, the tree outside my very own front door. And, the beauty of time itself.
I truly believe in the saying that "The best time to start thinking about your retirement is before the boss does" as doing so you can get out of the rat race at a time that allows you to not only maintain your dignity,but come away with a feeling of being wanted.
However its always wise not to simply retire from something; but have something to retire to. As more often than not,when men reach their sixties and retire, they go to pieces. Women go right on cooking like they have always been doing.
So then for men sometimes it's hard to tell if retirement is a reward for a lifetime of hard work or a punishment.
