That's life

A few days ago, I turned 58. If my plan had come true, I should now be a happily retired man, enjoying the fruits of my labour from the last thirty or so years. Alas, it didn't worked out the way I planned it to be. I can only plan but Allah decides. I am now still working, even harder than before. I am carving out a living while planning for the future of my kids. Its still 9 to 5 for me, only it is more now, 8 to 7 or even longer. Its a life I never anticipated, especially this advance age. How do I feel about it? It does not matter I guess. What matters is life goes on. And I will continue to strive as best as I can, lilla hi Taala.
