After a long period of time, the moment of retirement has finally arrived. However, just as I was celebrating, I felt an inexplicable reluctance in my heart. A few days before retirement, it was like a solo dance of the soul, and confusion and discomfort filled my heart, and I seemed to have become an old man forgotten by society.
Retirement is an important turning point in life. For those with an optimistic mindset, this means entering a new spring; For those who are depressed, the cold winter of the rest of their lives is coming. How can you adjust yourself and live a stable old age? Perhaps, the answer lies in the wisdom of the ancients.
The ancients said: "Linyuan envy fish, it is better to retreat and build a net; It is better to raise the soup to stop the boiling, than to draw the salary from the bottom of the kettle." This old adage speaks of the inevitable trade-offs after retirement. In the face of changes in life, we need to take a step back and examine our place. Some people are struggling to find a job after retirement, or they are eager for additional benefits from their employers. However, returning to work often leads to discomfort and dissatisfaction. Dealing with young bosses can often be intimidating. Or, some people choose to start a business again, but they don't realize the huge risks. Only by accepting the changes of life and not forcing to return to the workplace can we truly achieve the effect of "drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle".
Retirement brings not only the disappearance of jobs, but also the shrinkage of monthly income. Usually, a pension is only enough to support the basics. Some people may have some savings, but they are obsessed with travel or enjoying city life, and they do not spend their wealth on their own. What's more, they are deceived by merchants into buying health care products, which further consumes financial resources. However, the years after retirement require more money to cope. Elderly people who know how to be frugal will strictly control their expenses to ensure that they have enough money in the future. Maintaining a financially adequate situation will not only ensure your own livelihood, but also reduce the burden on your children.
The gate of good fortune is more beautiful than harmony, and the first of trouble is greater than internal detachment." Family is the greatest happiness in life, and family harmony is the key to maintaining mental health. Bangu's story tells us that returning to family is the true meaning of old age. No matter what the outside world throws, family is always our harbor. Turning around the family, helping the children, and caring for the wife are the most worthwhile things to do after retirement.
When the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no fugitives." After retirement, some people may fall into loneliness or even become estranged from family and friends. However, learning to go into the collective and make like-minded friends can dispel the loneliness in your heart. The help and support of our neighbors is an indispensable part of our lives. Don't be obsessed with interests, don't lose big because of small things, and keep simple and sincere interpersonal relationships, so that we can live happier in our old age.
Zeng Guofan said: "Profit can be shared but not alone, and seeking can be few but not many; If you profit alone, you will lose, and if you seek to do so, you will vent. "When you retire, it's time to let go of your interests and value people's feelings. We should not hurt others for selfish gain, but cherish human feelings and cherish friendships. Only when we are happy and see the world is beautiful can we find true happiness in retirement.
In this text, we have a common attitude towards life after retirement. Let's start from now on and welcome every beautiful moment of old age with a peaceful mind.
