rertired

We will finally live the life that we have deprived the years of our work!

     We will enjoy the fruits of our labors, now you sit and  youngs will be working for us.

                                    I will not go out on my pension does not reach the papers!

                                      Our whole life we ​​run to gather the pension for our old age !!!

                          But what happens when the pension comes;

        Throughout our life we ​​stress ourselves getting to the end of work and  get the coveted pension that will relax us, because we finally do things we wanted and as we worked there was no free time either because of work or because of family responsibilities.

        The time comes for the preparation and man begins to be anxious to see his hair white, anxious, his family and his children have left, the job has gone away from them, is starting to look a little depression in the eyes of the pensioner, why; He did not get the pension for which he fought a life; Isn’t it what we wanted?  Sitting and youngs working for them?  Why retired are so sad then? Take a look around the people and look how many retired people are starting living the retired  life, going from bench to bench and are depressed. Why;

        The pensioner begins to pass this transition from the state of active presence in the fabric of society with his work, he begins to leave the previous way of life. The retired man  begins to feel neglected, isolated from society, begins to feel loneliness begins to understand everything what the point was not to come to get a pension begins to understand that he misses his work begins to understand that the job as if it was busy it was his life. The life of a pensioner is too difficult to adapt to this new situation. He starts looking again for a job or selflessly helps children to feel useful. The pensioner is all day inside the house looking at TV, it all comes out, do not want after all, rarely can travel to go somewhere, but most remain closeted at home.

      A retired is very difficult to adapt to the state of inactivity. He was a productive member of society and has now withdrawn. The lonely pensioner is unbearable. The time runs differently in this age phase. Reminisce about the past, the beautiful and difficult moments lived with friends, with colleagues, sometimes frustrated. The society, in particular young people we have to be close in later life and to stand by them. Think how difficult it is to recruit someone in this age to engage them, at a time when neither the young people do not find work.

     Retired people need us everyday, they society, elderly need us. Stay close to elderlies. We all love them, but we have to show it to them also.
