| description | As I plan for my impending retirement that is to come soon, many thoughts have been criss-crossing my mind. Generally speaking, one significant feeling that engulfs me is the muted excitement. Exactly what this excitement is all about, I am still trying to decipher. My current circle of friends is mainly those who have either just recently retired or will be retiring soon as I would be. Meeting those who have just retired and listening to their own experiences have somewhat influenced my thoughts on how my own post-retirement life would turn out to be. This, I feel, is a double-edged sword. While I can take solace in the fact that life will be less regimented upon retirement, I am also left with an uneasy feeling about the uncertainty that lies beyond. Well, so much for the doom and gloom of retirement! Let us talk about the excitement part of retiring. As the days approach, I mainly feel excited for two reasons: excitement of the impending (inevitable?) freedom and excitement of the unknown. |
