For the last 40 years; most of the time for new acquaintance; they might ask to that effect of either where are you working or What are you working at?
ReplyDeleteNow when I replied retired and often the new younger acquaintance will respond something like "Enjoy life".
Sound confusing leh. So what is Ikigai? LOL!
"My world is not your world and my kingdom is not your kingdom." Retirement is a capitalist concept. If I hv delinked from the capital economy, wouldn't I be taking an indeterminate sabbatical leave until I figure out what my new world(being) will be? Enjoy, feeling sad or otherwise is all in the one's control or is it by the spirit? I am searching.
ReplyDeleteIf my company has sabbatical policy; I would have taken few months sabbatical to do a pilot run. Actually; I have met quite a number of retirees who have said after crossing the six months threshold unlikely they will go back to work.

ReplyDeleteI suppose their previous jobs r not very motivating intrinsically. Anyway, congrats to them on their retirement and wish them abundant joy in searching or engaging new work. Carpe diem!

It's nice to get your acknowledgement that financial freedom is just one slice of our life - not the be all and end all!
We men should know. To some women, love is their everything in life; but to most men, love is just one part of our lives.
