Retirement?

Posted on Posted in Memories, UncategorizedTagged , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

How do you want to retire?

I need a crystal ball.

To see into my future

Life could be fun

Or a daily grind

Who can tell?

Will I get a pension?

Will I have enough?

Will the planet be OK?

What will happen to the environment?

Lots of questions.

I would like to keep as fit as I can.

I hope to feel enthusiastic again,

Maybe get involved in the community.

Semi retirement is OK

But I do feel a little lost

I do try and do things

When I’m feeling OK.

That’s the main thought

A wish to be OK

To keep going.

Not to lose my way.

Fears

Today is a hiding day. Lots of thoughts and fears roaming around the inside of my head. I need to get things done but I don’t feel like doing them. I’m going to give myself some slack, just a few hours to feel safe.

Yesterday I was more optimistic, I got some things done I’d been putting off. I’ve even started my gratitude book again. And later I will go out as the cats won’t have anything to eat if I don’t. But yesterday afternoon something happened that put everything into another perspective. And I just froze. I’m only hinting, I’m not going to say, and I think I will be OK, it was something mental not physical. I’m OK. I will be OK.

Felt OK

Last night I went out to choir practice for the first time in several weeks. I wrote this gratitude about it when I got home. When I got there I couldn’t help crying, but a friend came over and calmed me down. We are now the mystery singers for the Christmas season so we were singing songs like Gaudete and Sweet Chiming Bells. Finally we sang While Shepherds watched their flocks by night to the tune of on Ilkley Moor Bah’tat, (although the Carol song might have come first?). By the end of the night I felt OK. So I am very glad I went.
