This line really says it all when it comes to retirement and life in general.
It's so easy to slip into a passive role, but there's an inherent risk in that.
It reminds me that while stepping back and reflecting is important, being actively engaged in life is where we often find fulfillment.
Whether through hobbies, relationships, or part-time work, continuing to "participate" gives life meaning beyond just watching it unfold.
Thanks for sharing!
