I Am Struggling With Life

I have been retired for over four and a half years, at the beginning i felt quite well of but as time has passed i am getting hard up, looking to where i can cut back, i used to think before i retired i would be going on cruises and really interesting holidays but alas not to be, cheap coach tours if i am lucky, i used to hear before i retired about people retired and having a great time going places, the thing was i sacrificed over the years paying into a works pension expecting to have a better standard of life and to be no better of than those that never bothered paying into a pension at all obviously i was the MUG.

I’ve never had the opportunity to be able to do anything I wanted like other seniors when I retired. My abusive husband fixed that for me. However, I find my life very rich and lovely, when I keep my eyes and heart on Jesus. It doesn’t come automatically. One must desire the closeness and fellowship with the Lord. Like any other close relationship, we get out of it what we put into it. Our eternal, beautiful vacation shall take place, and it’s worth the wait, just to see and meet Jesus and experience heaven forever. What we endure here, is nothing compared to the glory that awaits us, and it will be worth it all.

How did this happen? Was pension not enough?

@SW-User Well i thought i would be better of as i had paid into the pension for over 40 years but i think as cost of living rises you find that you are not as well of as you hoped.

@SW-User yea. I can see that. I guess it’s best to work as long as you can.
