It's important to stay busy. I'm a big advocate for "movement" and to do things, and study new things. Keeping your mind moving and sharp. Doing things for people - giving your best and doing some volunteer work of some type. It's a great feeling for me to see my friends face when they pick up their stuff and notice I've done extra, made it the best I could - then I hear later how good it runs and how much fun they are having . . . it helps them "keep moving" too.
