The energy level is a real thing, and frankly, happens way too much.

And it's quite often that people define themselves by what they do, which can lead to the depression you talk about when they retire.

I aged out of the radio business a few years ago, but rather than whine, I looked back at my younger years to what else I imagined doing with my life at that time.

I've since reinvented myself, and am having a wonderful time.
