Retirement - is this you?
A man retired recently and was enjoying the time playing golf, spending time with friends and at home. His wife had continued her community and social life and he found himself by himself quite often. One day he walked into the kitchen and decided to reorganise everything . Pots and pans, dishes, cupboards and drawers – he even alphabetised the spice rack. On his wife’s return he led her into the kitchen and announced what he done to help her. She was speechless. In a week or two, after he returned from golf, his wife asked him to go to his shed. She had re-arranged the tools, by handle colour – red handled-tools, green-handled tools, silver handled tools and a pile of other colours that seem to go together. He reported that he never went into her kitchen again unaccompanied! Don’t let retirement mean your having to ‘help’ and not getting it right. Make a plan for a meaningful and purposeful life, now!
