These are my personal observations but in ...

At the age of 11 -  12 , me and my mom used to visit the Laxminarayan temple. Frequently there were lectures by kathakars - story tellers of the epics, Puranas, Shrimad Bhagwatam : the life of Lord shri Krishna and the Ramayana. We had a Guruji named Amardasji who used to narrate the Ramayana interestingly, with lots of funny incidents thrown in and musical Bhajans too.

         9 Reasons Why  Should a Retired Senior Work Post Retirement? Laugh With Me.      A businessman or an employee asking this question needs to consider his physical and mental condition at this juncture. Obviously if he or she has retired due to health issues - this discussion is not for him/ her. But somebody who has retired in regular course and opted out of business for extraneous reasons then we are talking about them.    There are people who had continued to work due to economic need , so once the problem is solved they come out of the business or employment harness.
