This message resonates with me. Having grown up in central Florida watching people retire - and then lose their minds after six months of meaningless golf, fishing, shuffle board, etc. - I saw firsthand what lack of purpose can do to a person. Many would get jobs bagging groceries at Publix just to have some place they were needed. And the drinking was next level. 12 pack a day no problem. From my experience (now 63) a sense of purpose and possibly a sense of belonging are vital to living.
