My Lab is nearly 10, lost my last one just before his 11th birthday so dreading what you're going through.People here have lost friends & family to this awful pandemic this past year. So I know I haven’t had a bad time of it. However, my dog passed away a couple of hours ago. He’s just a dog, but I’m heartbroken, he was my best mate. Remember their is a lot more to life than work. Work to live, don’t live to work. Don’t squander time cause you won’t get it back. I don’t wanna be one of those folk looking back regretting what I didn’t do. No one lies in their death bed and wished they worked more.
No matter how many times you go through it it doesn't get any easier. Hope the pain eases and the good memories help you get over your sadness.
I learnt many years ago what ever decision you make at the time you did it with the info you had in front of you. There is no point regretting and looking backwards because if you do you can't move forward.
I spent 20 years eating, sleeping and breathing work, still do Monday to Friday, so can appreciate others doing it. Is it sad? Possibly to those that don't have that mindset. Everyone lives their life the way they think is best and I don't think it's fair others criticising those that do things differently to them.
