I am a retiree, but I do not lack purpose.
I realize this is a bit hard to read, but it's 20 years old. It's been pinned to my wall (wherever the wall is) for the whole time. Not like I would forget, but it's public affirmation of what I do.
I think we have a semantics problem. Particularly since retirement riding (and maintaining) motorcycles is what I do. Even before, it was a focus in my life. What can I say, I think you have things you focus on that are part of your life no matter what they are called.
A rose by any other name...
