05/18/2009: "life!"

had news of a former neighbour of ours sadly passing away last week.
in their early 60s, always a worker, paid taxes, worked overtime when it was available, etc, etc.

went into work one day, keeled over, gone.
very sad for their wife as shes a lovely lady who is very kind and friendly, always has been.

is this all our life means today?
work, work, work, saving for retirement, one holiday a year (if you are lucky), from leaving school at 16 to early 60s then gone?

we graft too much in the UK, there has to be more to life than this?
