"Working hard for something
we don't care about is called
stress; working hard for some-
thing we love is called passion."
~Simon Sinek
Not sure whether to laugh or
cry over this bit of truth . . .
I started babysitting and house
cleaning at 11 and retired at 62
to care for my mom in house
for three and a half years. I bet
all your stories are similar.
So, a decade later, I no longer
hike or take long walks. Trash
and mailbox does it for me.
I do know retired friends who
engage in a great deal of out-
door activities, so it must be
just moi!
Were it up to me to shoot a
tad of elder wisdom your way,
I'd say those same infamous
words we've all heard so often.
Do it now! Now being the
operative word. I may even
make the effort to add in the
odd thing or two to my own
life . . .
. . . although I'm quite content
as is!
