I'm looking forward to it

I had a wonderful conversation today with a friend at church who is about 10 years older than I am.  She has been doing quite a lot of satisfying volunteer work since she retired 15 years ago.  I told her that I'm looking forward to retirement (just one year away for me now) and I want to do some kind of volunteer work but I just don't know what I want to do.  She said to wait, and when I retire all of the busyness of my current schedule will drain away, and I will be ready and receptive when the right opportunity comes along.  I think that's wonderful advice.
