Why are you working?

On Friday, I saw a guy that I used to work with 10 years ago who went on disability for his back. Well it seems that his disability was revoked and he has to sub 120 days in order to get his retirement. He asked me why I was working and that he didn't think I would have a problem getting a disability( I also have enough years to retire). I told him that I was working because I wanted to. The more that I thought about it, I am really working because I can. When I think back to amost 10 months ago, I couldn't take a shower by myself, had to get dressed with one hand, my left arm and hand wouldn't move, and couldn't walk more than a few steps without help, I decided that the real answer was that I was working because I could. I realized how far I have come, but I still have a long way to go. In my heart I know that I have made the right decision.
