I retired, but I haven't quit working. I haven't stopped working. It's just that my work life is complete. OHSC made this comment a while back, and I thought, that's kind of a nice way of looking at it. It kept popping back into my mind. Like every few days I'd think about it again, and every time I thought about it, it felt kind of nice, like kind of good. I didn't quit working. I didn't quit my career. I finished it. And for someone who feels like a quitter most of their life, because of the way my mind works, I only finish things that I'm super fixated on. And so most of my life I thought I was a quitter, but I was just engaging in the wrong things usually. I still suffer from worrying about that, about being a quitter. And when you look at retirement as the completion of your work life, it really works. It lets you sort of like rest into the retirement and not fixate so much on the stopping because you're done with it. You did it. You completed it. Something you can say you completed, which is a really neat way of looking at it. Thanks for that comment.
