I think it depends on whether your job was your whole life or just a part of it. I worked hard every day but my primary reason for wokring was to have enough money to live on and do things that interested me more. Now I just do the things that interested me more.

I still visit my old colleagues form time to time. I took the bus downtown and while waiting for the bus to go home some of them stopped by on the away to the parking lot to congratulate me on my retirement. An old man sitting nearbye reacted with contempt, annoucing that I'd be dead within months. He said the was 80 and still working and that's what keeps him going. The 33 years I'd put into my work was nothing to him. That was a acouple of years ago and I'm still alive and enjoying life. He's proably still working if he's alive. I hope he's happy. He didn't look it when I talked with him. He just looked afraid of death.

I have a feeling that nothing would ever replace basketball for JB but that it's nhot his whole life and that he might enjoy being retired. It doesn't eman you do nothing. It means you do what you want to do.
