Ah! That's the life.
Nobody can escape the flying time.
There was the time for delight of youth,
but there has come the time for grief of our old age.
My mother once encouraged me with the word of "your future like ninety thousand li's "
In Hangul, 구만리같은 네 앞길.
Now the ninety thousand li's future is fast approaching its end, since time flies faster and faster as we age.
Is this the secular interpretation of the principle of relativity?
BB, please take more time for your wife and yourself rather than working and lecturing.

KwanHo, good point! You are absolutely right!
When I had to make a painful (?) decision to retire from the Hopkins, my U.S. base, then - the new chief of the Hopkins Surgery empire decided not to honor the pledge/commitment it's former chief made to me to set up the new programs/clinics when I come back to the States, 2004, after served almost 10 years at SamSung Hospital to complete/establish five projects l brought from the Hopkins-, it's first 6 months were hell! Literally got up 5:30 am like clock but had nothing I could kill the time! I don't play golf, I don't play music but all I knew was 'work'! Supposedly to catch up all the family affairs I couldn't dare to spare the time till retired but it simply didn't work!
Three months? I felt I would go crazy and also drove my wife crazy as well so that I decidedt come back to work a part time base, teaching the kids, taking the clinical consultation only on the vascular malformation and lymphedema as a trouble shooter for the Department, just half of the year while spending other half to go around the world to give needy helps no one can do.
It seems to give some break to my wife as well and I also appreciate her more, hoping she doesn't get sick, God forbid, which will ground me forever through not many mileage left for me!
However I do worry and get anxious how I could manage my finale more and more in these days because I cannot go around like this- from the last year when I became 80, I try to go easy to alternate international/transoceanic and national/domestic travel once for every month though for this year I hopelessly failed, running around Mexico, Argentina, China in a row- and I might be found dead at one hotel room on the remotest corner of the world, as my wife worries! But, C'est la vie!

Too sad to read! Feel like our own fate!
Slowly one after one like an autumn leaf!
They already felt same way thousand years ago!
BB Lee
p.s. Rather prefer to have a quick end to disappear than having agonizingly slow disappearance. Indeed in the international stage of vascular surgery, not many colleagues in my same age remained active till lately though they all retired officially years ago. But, one by one disappear from the stage to make me feel so sad.
