on the subject of retirement...

At ninety. I would hope that I would feel satisfied. That I would feel accomplished. At the point I am at in my life now, I see the rest of the time I have here as time to achieve all the goals I have for myself now and may have in the future. At ninety, I would like to be able to look back on the world I was a part of, and feel as if I impacted that world in my own way. I want to be able to look at my wife, my kids, and my family, and feel an indescribable sense of love that I found.

Time has an unwanted tendency to slip away. And I hope that throughout the course of my life, time can slip away from me as I hold a smile. What may I accomplish? Good question. Life happens. And my wants and needs could change in a heartbeat depending on what life throws my way.
