Before, I spent much more time with people who are active, physically, socially, financially. As a result, I would spend more time surrounded by those aspects too, so would spend more time discussing and operating similarly. Shut away from the social groups though, I have myself become less active and perhaps more accepting of inactivity itself. With fewer people to be around, there are few reasons to be any better.

This really resonated with me as over the years my social circle has declined significantly due to various factors. I have found it all too easy to become complacent, and your words really highlight that. In our society we need reminders of the importance of seeking out communities and relationships that inspire growth and challenge us to be our best selves.
