So you just gave notice at the job you have worked almost your entire life that you have decided to retire. But until your last day, the excitement has deterred you from thinking how you would like to spend the remaining time you have here in this lifetime. If you begin to think negatively about what your retirement may have to offer you, then you have come to the right place. Retirement should not be seen as a stage of life that lacks in luster. It should be a time that is seen as positive, uplifting, inspiring, and adventurous.

Story
When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.
