Hardly ever remember my dreams, but often find myself waking up–oft even from daydreams–to a telling tune.

Wondered yesterday if there were such a thing as a retirement anthem.

Before I could investigate or ponder, I immediately found myself humming an old Brenda Lee hit.

Guesses–before you read on?

Title and a duo of lyric-phrases rapidly followed…“I’m Sitting on Top of the World…”… “…just rolling along…” “…just singing a song.”

Naive?

Roll with the punches, sing a happy song…sounds like a good retirement plan, whether sitting on top of the world or not.

For now, with 55 days to go in anticipation of the big R Day, naïve or not, why not imagine the best, and be grateful for the ultimate experience, however it unfolds?

Expectation or reality. What’s your nomination for a Retiree Anthem?
