When I was about 40 about 2:30 one afternoon I was involved in a conversation with a county worker , complaining about the adequacy of his retirement .
He turned to me expecting support . At that time I was a Dairy Farmer struggling to survive . My hours were dark 30 till dark 30 , 7 x 24 .
When he looked to me I told him I'm already retired . His vernacular , he responded you must be one of those fat ass state workers . No I replied , I've never worked for the state 1 day in my life , I don't know anything about it .
What I do know is that when I got up this morning I felt good , now I'm tired , and tonight when I go bed I'll be darned tired . It was like that yesterday , today , and the last 40 years . I have no reason to expect that it won't be the same when I die .

I left that conversation thanking God for using me and the enrichment that some people do exist in very narrow lives.

"HE MUST INCREASE , I MUST DECREASE" John The Baptist
