Balance and Work

Leave a comment

I answered the question last year – In what ways does hard work make you feel fulfilled? – In a post called Hard Work.

I reviewed that post and it’s hard to add to those reasons I felt fulfilled from work. All of them are still true today. Of course, being retired now has changed that perspective a bit.

Hard Work is tough. And when you’ve done it for decades you think about all the things you weren’t doing that seem far more important now. Things you set aside. Interest you postponed. New things like grandchildren enter your life and take the place of work. Though watching grandchildren as seniors is sometime hard work.

Hard work is always rewarding. But so are other things so keep a balance in life. From a person who has had things out of balance at times and knows what the cost is now.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
