Retirement is just a word until you reach that point. Then a whole new world opens up (in spite of the aches and pains) make the most of it...Delice

Retired with an arthritic knee but I won’t let us slow me down…much

Love the euphemistic, crescent looming on the back Lasaad, but really you want to be in good shape to enjoy those retirement years, you wrapped it all up perfectly, very enjoyable cheers David

Thank you so much, David, your delightful comment means a lot to me, and I really appreciate it, and honestly, all that I'm hoping for is a bit of health to enjoy some time with my grandchildren. I hope for you all the best, David.

Your Haiku is great, a little bit pessimistic but well written. Since I have retired for over a decade now, I thank God, nothing of the sort has come to pass. Rejoice, my friend, Lasaad. Retirement may be the best time of your life! Be blessed.

The downside of retirement age sadly brings ailments, we just have to make the best of things Lasaad. Tom
