Refocussing

Lily Pad


I recently met this couple.  In conversation, I asked the woman if she was retired.  She said she doesn't use that word anymore, she tells people she is 'refocussing'.  People tend to think retired people do nothing but laze around watching tv.  The truth is that most 'retired' people have very busy lives and schedules.  I rather liked that word and want to remember it!

Here is a heartwarming story I read in the newspaper.
A teacher rescues a student's guitar left behind on a streetcar.
