1INTRODUCTION

Hopefully, you're unwinding and life is being more festive with all programs and schedules already in place for next year.

If you're working with people in the Northern hemisphere, they may be able to show you some snow over the video call session. Alternately, you may be able to show the sand & water's edge.


2MERRY CHRISTMAS

For the work, family and social circles, I hope the year had a progessive style even though the fashion may have changed quite a few times. Soon it will be time for all to unwind, eat and be merry.

For the Chinese New Year, it will be from 17 Feb 2026 to 03 March 2027. The background flavour will change from the Tantalising and transforming Wood Snake to the Headstrong and independant Fire Horse.

For the people where Diwali is a signifcant point on their calendar, we'll have to wait until 8th November next year to be part of your celebration as we've just had it on the 21st of October.

4LIFE'S RESET

As I've kept in touch with some others who are much older than me over the years, I've noticed some things that may help some of my peers who like the 'retired' word in their conversations.

For example:

-- some friendships fade,
-- motivation for an old career reshapes,

-- schedules in life restructure,
-- ambition seems to change context,

-- idea of urgency changes to being present,
-- pressure to consume or produce goes quiet and

-- professional identity is not what you do now.


Conversely, the undergraduates migrating to the workforce, will discover:

-- new fields of interest,
-- new structures & departments,

-- new pressures & demands,
-- different levels of urgency,

-- working with people and
-- new ways of solving problems within a time limit.

5CAVEMAN WELLBEING

In the caveman days, you may have found that Food, Shelter and Sleep were essential.

If you consider Self-expression and Connection to another person as a natural extension of it, some of today's tension would melt. Any comments?
