Retirement Plans
My article is featured in two other websites! Talk about bliss! Woooohoooo!!! :)
Yesterday I was asked what do I want to do after my retirement. The question took me by surprise for a while because I have never really thought about it. But I assume that I will never really stop working, although I do hope for more time to do what I really want to do, like writing a book and travelling, and picking up new hobbies to keep this mind occupied. I may perhaps migrate to a slower place where I always wanted to be, preferably one where I can be surrounded by nature. And I hope to remain open to learning and revision of ideas, being completely humble. The older you are, the more you are predisposed to be stubborn, basically. Of course, some core values especially Godly ones, must remain and even grow. Being an incredibly stubborn and hot-tempered person, I find this the greatest challenge and foresee that it will be a source of trial still.
