Life note 1
Today I had a conversation with my retired father and it
was went like this: "You should find something to do. Having life focus can make one live longer and
be happier. It doesn't have to be a paid
job," I said to my dad. "I know. I just need time to search what kind of thing I want to
do," My dad replied. After the conversation, I pondered a bit. I think I am right about suggesting
that my father gett
ing something to do for the rest of his life.
Meanwhile, I also feel the importance of developing second or multiple interests besides job skills. One thing is that those interests can invigorate our lives; another thing is that they may possibly become our career tools.
And they can also be our life center once we retire. The reason why my father needs time to find one is that he did not develop any
interests when he was
little or young, and he had no time to do it (or he may even not
have been aware of it) after he built
the a family. Because of my father, I told myself that I should explore more and experience more
so to find
the one that what I enjoy the most
and make it my hobby and interest...
