Leave.

Numbers that I have been thinking of for a few days:
--------------------------------------------

33: years lived here
28: years of work for the same people
13.5: weeks of sickness asked
0: days of extended leisure
--------------------------------------------
10: minutes to let go
0: expectations
--------------------------------------------

Strange how some people get treated at the end when all they thought about was the respect they would earn and deserve. This place has given a lot for all these years, and took it all back in a flash leaving nothing but a sense of disbelief, a present which is a reminder of nothing but past glories and a future that is uncertain and pale. It is sad definitely, but it could be worst. Yes, hope does not fade and those who have been there know that.

33 years of life’s achievement; not its bereavement.
28 years of loyalty, dedication and capability
10206.5 days of resilience and strength against illness and ailment
10 minutes, an injection of freedom & liberty
An infinite target for accomplishment and enjoyment
So relish and revel in hope, opportunity and positivity.

I must say, very nicely put but
still an unexpected opporunity that requires the mind to change and the heart to embrace.

A finite target for accomplishment and enjoyment, not infinite.

Hope? Yes, always.

An infinite target for accomplishment and enjoyment, not finite.
