Knowing When to Pull the Cord

A reflection on forty years of work, the people who became chosen family, and the quiet question of what comes next after retirement.

Cover for: Knowing When to Pull the Cord

Years passed by faster than I imagined, Months are moments in time to remember. Can’t believe it’s my time to retire, After serving just over forty years. Over the years, I’ve met some great people, For they became my chosen family. Some managed to leave a mark on my soul, Others will always have a place in my heart. Unbeknownst to me, on my first day of work, This would be my calling and devotion. Having lived a meaningful journey in, Following my career through many jobs. Learned through great mentors and supervisors, Of learning how to keep life in balance. Reciprocating through my mentorship, In passing along tales that shaped my path. Debating what I will do next in life, After all, my story isn’t done yet.
