a milestone

It has been a long time since I thought of milestones. Milestones were there when we were growing up . Babies to toddlers to teenagers impatient to be adults. Dates & weddings. Next ,we apply the milestones to our offsprings. Now , the kids have grown & flown the nest. Yes, It has been a long time since we use that word on ourselves.

Empty nest syndrome... Working life coming to an end..... re-establishing ties with long lost classmates.... Yes, all these culminate to this new milestone of our lives. Retirement ?

Retirement , the word stirs a multitude of emotions. Postive as well as negative ones come flooding . Now, I am free ! free to do all the things I have always wanted to do but did not have the time . Well better start thinking of what to do......
