The life you never built after six p.m.
Foundation Regret·All ages
A doctor who sat with more than a thousand dying patients left a list of their regrets. One was: work and nothing else, no time for anything you love. Three months after retirement, a man told his wife, "Without going to work I don't know who I am." For thirty years he had been a job title, and behind it nothing had been prepared. Retirement is a celebration only for those who built someone to be there.
Working all the time and never making time for hobbies.
— Shuichi Otsu, Japanese palliative care physician
