Retirement for people working in the government job generally happens at the age of 60, for private, it might happen a little late.
As far as I am concerned, the only time one retires is when one leaves this body.
Though, what needs to be done for most of us in contemporary times is to retire our thoughts from doing stupidity.
Most of the times, our minds seem to be occupied with one thing or the other, which one refers to as being able to multi-task or being mindful,
Be it the comparisons we keep making day-in-day-out,
or
Aspirations of earning more and more,
Have you ever wondered, what would happen if instead of being mind-full, you were mind-less?
Free from all worries that seem to come as a consequence of being mind-full,
Free from anxieties of what if!
Free from meeting the expectations and aspirations,
Does that mean, sitting idle?
Not really, in turn, you get an opportunity to focus on that all important thing, in terms of making your contribution towards the society that you are a part of,
That one core activity you would want to dedicate yourself to make a difference in the lives of people occupying this cosmos at the same point of time as you,
To utilize to the core that key skill set you consider yourself to be having,
The question though is your preference for being mid-full or mind-less ? 😉
