It was fun there, and here at this one, just as a guest, there are reminders of the things I used to enjoy doing. Yet I'm constantly reminded about the jobs that people do just so that they have a job; and the converse situation on the other side of life where people don't work; on purpose.
The county is filled with old people who need something to do. The hospitals, assisted living facilities, nuthouses, rehabilitation centers, retirement communities and my house are filled with people who don't do much.
If you don't have much to do; you don't do much. And this is what many people do on purpose for themselves? They work at a job they hate- which they're comfortable admitting for the most part- to some of the people in their lives... and then they start a retirement that they hate without knowing it. Okay, they don't hate it; they are lulled into its attractions.
But you know, work has attractions too- and just as people assume they need to work when they're young- why do they hate it then and need it later without knowing it?
