it’s difficult for me to comprehend not working. it’s not even the stopping working during the day, i can imagine not going to work, it’s the general “work on the mind”, problems at work, repairing minor disasters, planning what i need to do by when, worrying about little things, etc.
i hear about lawyers and judges who die the moment they retire, probably because they relax for the first time in years and a vessel bursts because it’s not being properly clamped down on or something. i think i would have to ease into it so i don’t explode or implode.
i would like to be an old manual laborer. i read about some vietnamese guy in his 90s who rides a bicycke rickshaw. something like that. putting up fences or something.
