#67 Start Early For Soul-care
You brush your teeth each day to stay healthy;
The frequency and brushing art matter;
You spend wisely and save to stay wealthy;
Health is more important than the latter.
You labour hard all life to earn something;
And think you can enjoy post-retirement;
You know that money is not everything;
We live under the same one firmament.
The care of soul is also one like art;
You can’t make it all pure over one night;
From birth itself, begins the goodness-chart;
God’s Grace is the one rectifying light.
Our earthly life is to get Heaven’s bliss!
But should we stay unprepared and then miss?
When a man retires and time is no longer a matter of urgent importance,
his colleagues generally present him with a watch.
R.C. Sherriff
Retired is being twice tired, I've thought
First tired of working, then tired of not.
Richard Armour
O, blest retirement! Friend to life's decline -
How blest is he who crowns, in shades like these,
A youth of labor with an age of ease!
Goldsmith

The challenge of retirement is how to spend time without spending money.

Retirement is wonderful. It's doing nothing without worrying about
getting caught at it.
