If all else fails, a simple reboot will do the trick!

Just so it is through the various phases of life. We never stop evolving, from an innocent baby to an inquisitive toddler, when we learn rapidly. 
Come to think about it, we really start life as a fertilized egg, haha, funny, but true! Actually a mind-blowing thought! So fragile, yet so determined to come into the world! 
We go from childhood, all the while evolving. The fabulous but difficult teens where we desperately want to be grown-up, and be an adult. When we get there, we're faced with big responsibilities, making life-changing decisions: career choices, getting into the workplace, and caring for our own family. Those years can be difficult if we've not made the right career choice, as it's when we spend most of our waking hours at the workplace. Nevertheless, life becomes a whirlwind, working, tending to our homes, nurturing our children, and watching them grow into young adults.

The time comes where we have to step away from the workplace, kind of get kicked out at a certain age if it's a big corporate. 

The only thing to do then is a hard reboot!

Not as easy as it sounds.

So many people yearn for the day they stop working, so it's almost an anti-climax when they get there; what to do now? The kids now have their own families, and grandpop or grandmama are now retired and have so much time on their hands! Surely it would do them good to have at least a few chores - pick up the kids from school, take them to extra-curricular activities, and so on.

Many folks now in their golden years find they have less time on their hands than ever before. There comes a time when they have to say, Enough, can't do it no more.

Time for that hard reboot!

Take stock of what you want to do, and remember the long-forgotten dreams and yearnings that seem to come from eons ago.
Is it not time to move on? It's just the two of you again, or perhaps just one, so do you really want to live in such a big home? Why not find something easier to maintain, a lock-up-and-go? Check out your options, look at that bucket list, or start one afresh!   

Living and loving, a constant flow from one phase to the next. 
Remember to reboot from time to time, and when you get to your autumn years, a hard reboot will have you off on a new adventure on the never-ending circle of life!
