Thanks for your write-up on the travel industry. I’d also like to include that if you are a senior contemplating traveling, it really is absolutely crucial that you buy travel insurance for older persons. When traveling, retirees are at biggest risk of experiencing a health-related emergency. Obtaining right insurance policy package for your age group can protect your health and provide you with peace of mind.

Happiness is something , unfortunately , that is not guaranteed to stay once you find it.
I was happy with a capital H until the very sudden and unexpected death of my soulmate/husband last April.
He was only 42 when he died.
We were so very happy. It was not hard work or something we had to chase or examine or look for-it simply was.
For myself and our children, finding happiness again will be the hardest task of our lives.

Happiness is a funny and sometimes elusive thing. It seems like we have to work real hard, and sometimes suffer quite a bit, just to understand how simple it can be to be happy. And yet, if we lose that fine balance in our outlook, expectations and the goals we set for ourselves we can lose it. Understanding ourselves well enough to know what we need to do each day to maintain that happiness is a big thing.

It is great to have you back writing articles again. I really enjoy reading them. Thanks.

I like your thoughts John, they’re not at all confusing! Some great points, and interesting replies. I hope you’ll be interested to read something we’ve written, which fits in neatly with your comment: “My only advice is to keep searching until you get there, and when you get there you will know it because you’re so freaking happy!”

It’s true the road to finding fulfilling work may be long, but there are ways to make the journey much easier. Maybe you’ll like our Happy Work-cycle Model:
