Popular Post Queenie O. Posted October 9, 2017 Popular Post Posted October 9, 2017 The luxury of no real structure here in the Philippines, and that time is your own. Not to have to get up and go to work, anddo all the related tasks that surrounded the work week. No more cold winter mornings. Island time. Dreamy.. I always felt that work was highly overrated anyway.. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virginprune Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Succinctly put by Queenie and others. Retirement is the time that you step into your own world and just dedicate yourself to whatever you want to do. Money helps but depending on lifestyle it has much less of a demand on your general wellbeing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed my Friend but there are days and I tend to think Today is going to be one of them so sometimes I can still get that Monday Blues feeling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intrepid Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Some people "Live to work" and others "Work to live". The former will have a hard time with retirement. The latter will enjoy it to no end. Either way, retirement will be what you make it. As others have said, you need to keep your mind and body active. These can be simple things which cost little to no money. Other things like hobbies can be fulfilling. But, like everything else in life, each of us to find that balance for ourselves. Just relax and enjoy your retirement Steve. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
