I am on disability so it's kinda like retirement.

After a few months of painting dutch pour art, I spent months just playing video games and not really doing anything with my life.

I mentioned to my wife one day how I felt my life had no meaning. She told me it was to stay well.

I have recently found a new avenue for the art I create and feel the most rewarded creatively I have ever felt. I can't really make a lot of money due to disability.

If you can find something you are passionate about and pursue that during your retirement it is worth it. If you think you would really just loaf around and stay in bed or just watch netflix, this would not be rewarding and would not be worth it in my opinion.

You are right, no one is promised tomorrow. I try to live as much as I can everyday. If you feel the same way, find your passion and follow it as far as it will take you.
