Retirement Option -- Extracted

Can consider.....


About 2 years ago my friend and I were on a cruise through the western Mediterranean aboard a Princess liner. At dinner we noticed an elderly lady sitting alone along the rail of the grand stairway in the main dining room. I also noticed that all the staff, ships officers, waiters, busboys, etc., all seemed very familiar with this lady.


I asked our waiter who the lady was, expecting to be told she owned the line, but he said he only knew that she had been on board for the last four cruises, back to back.

As we left the dining room one evening I caught her eye and stopped to say hello. We chatted and I said, "I understand you've been on this ship for the last four cruises".

She replied, "Yes, that's true."

I stated, "I don't understand" and she replied, without a pause, "It's cheaper than a nursing home".

So, there will be no nursing home in my future. When I get old and feeble, I am going to get on a Princess Cruise Ship. The average cost for a nursing home is $200 per day. I have checked on reservations at Princess and I can get a long term discount and senior discount price of $135 per day. That leaves $65 a day for:

1. Gratuities which will only be $10 per day. And the rest can be put into the slot machines.


2. I will have as many as 10 meals a day if I can waddle to the restaurant, or I can have room service (which means I can have breakfast in bed every day of the week).


3. Princess has as many as three swimming pools, a workout room, free washers and dryers, and shows every night.


4. They have free toothpaste and razors, and free soap and shampoo.


5. They will even treat you like a customer, not a patient. An extra $5 worth of tips and your casino winnings will have the entire staff scrambling to help you.


6. I will get to meet new people every 7or 14 days.


7. TV. broken? Light bulb needs changing? Need to have the mattress replaced? No problem! They will fix everything and apologize for your inconvenience.


8. Clean sheets and towels every day, and you don't even have to ask for them.


9. If you fall in the nursing home and break a hip you are on Medicare; if you fall and break a hip on the Princess ship they will upgrade you to a suite for the rest of you life.


Now hold on for the best! Do you want to seeSouth America, thePanama Canal, Tahiti, Australia, New Zealand, Asia, or name where you want to go? Princess will have a ship ready to go. So don't look for me in a nursing home, just call shore to ship.

PS: And don't forget, when you die, they just dump you over the side at no charge!!

~a sweet story to share~

It was a busy morning, approximately 8:30 am, when an elderly gentleman,
in his 80's, arrived to have stitches removed from his thumb. He stated
that he was in a hurry as he had an appointment at 9:00 am. I saw him
looking at his watch and decided, since I was not busy with another
patient, I would evaluate his wound. On exam it was well healed, so I
talked to one of the doctors, got the needed supplies to remove his
sutures and redressed his wound.

While taking care of his wound, we began to engage in conversation.

I asked him if he had an important appointment that morning, as he was
In such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the
nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife. I then inquired as to her
health. He told me that she had been there for a while and that she was
a victim of Alzheimer Disease. As we talked, and I finished dressing his
wound, I asked if she would be worried if he was a bit late.

He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had not
recognized him in five years now. I was surprised, and asked him. "And
you still go every morning, even though she doesn't know who you are?"

He smiled as he patted my hand and said."She doesn't know me, but I
still know who she is."

I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose pimples on my arm, and
thought, "That is the kind of love I want in my life."

True love is neither physical, nor romantic.

True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will
not be.

"The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
they just make the best of everything that comes along their way."

"Life is what we make it, always has been, always will be."

Happiness doesn't depend on what u have but what u satisfy & contented
with.

Try looking at the simple side of life, don't make life around you so
complicated. It's how you make others happy rather than how you want
others to make you happy.

hmmm...i overslept 2dae cos' of the tiring dae i had yesterdae(1st may05)...travelled to malacca with my family n relatives...ate and shop along the way...under the super hot weather...spoils my mood lor...hahaha...these few days the weather really hot...even some rain aso can't make it cool...hmmm....but yesterday while travelling down 2wards Johor that highway...it rained really heavily...so heavy till its really difficult to drive(poor driver)...but never did i noe that such a weather can cause deaths of many people(in tragic ways)...along the way...after the rain gets smaller...i saw the most accidents at a go in my life!i think it all adds up to abt 5 to 6 car accidents along part of the stretch of expressway...one is where 3 to 4 cars crash together...2 of which are mercedes benz...another accident was that 1 car fell into the drain along the side of the highway...and the worse one which traumatised me the most was i think 2 cars that crash 2gether...it shld be that the car in front lost control n crash along the side...and the car behind juz hit it...dis accident happened at the other direction where i was at...i did not see dat side...but my relatives saw saw about 2 dead bodies at the other side...and 1 more at the side we r at...which i aso saw n which traumatised mi...dis 1 was a little gal of abt 3 to 4yrs of age...lying there in the moddle of the road...dead...i screamed n cried when i saw this...and this picture has been in my mind since...whenever i saw expressway...it will remind mi of her...she's really so poor thing...she's flown out of the car to the other side of the accident lane...her head was also dislocated...she really died tragically...and she also hav to die separated from her family members...haiz...but the thing i'm worried most is whether is she carried away or not...if not if other drivers did not see...they may even run over her...how i wish i could help...but all i did was scream n cry...*Lord, y do all these things happen?y muz the gal die in a tragic manner?*
after seeing all these accidents...i wana remind these to all out there : treasure ur life well...live ur life to the fullest!my fellow brothers n sisters in Christ out there...do keep believing n trusting in God...He will protect you!...n everybody please listen up...please do not do things that put ur own lives n mayb even other ppl's lives in danger...please do not speed...esp in bad rainy weathers...please put on the seatbelt...the lil gal flew out could be cos' she did not put on the seatbelt...pls do remember k?it's for ur own gd...n for the gd of ppl ard u...
