THE ODDITIES OF A TRAVELING LIFE – WRITING AS RETIREMENT THERAPY FOR AN OLD GEEZER…by Patrick Burns
THE ODDITIES OF A TRAVELING LIFE – WRITING AS RETIREMENT THERAPY FOR AN OLD GEEZER…by Patrick Burns
Sometimes it just doesn’t work out the way you thought it would.
I decided to climb off the corporate ladder nearly ten years ago, leaving Singapore and a senior HR management role with vague plans to spend more time on “interests” rather than work. Plans that hadn’t been fully defined yet but there’d be something to do with making music and I was also quite keen on learning to surf since I would be living in Southern California; that’s what you do there instead of working, surely?

An Article by Ruth Danes
Since childhood, I have been interested in both stories and history. When I was a little girl, I wrote and illustrated little books made from folded pieces of A4 paper.

THE PURSUIT OF HEALTH by Valeria Teles
THE PURSUIT OF HEALTH by Valeria Teles
I went for a run because I had eaten a small, organic dark chocolate cookie the day before and I felt that I had to punish myself. It was habitual for me to punish myself with strenuous, caloric compensation cardio whenever I felt guilt for enjoying life by eating tasty foods. My fitness goals had gone up a notch after I’d placed first in a fitness competition. Winning the competition was one thing, but it was being complimented all the time for my extra lean body that pressured me to stay that way. I couldn’t allow myself look “bigger” again, and “bigger” really meant not seeing my defined ab muscles. Read More
