Signs you're becoming complacent in life for empty nesters: honest answers for Yorktown

Nobody in Yorktown sets out to drift. It happens slowly: a comfortable rhythm, a grateful heart, and then one day gratitude quietly became a reason to stop growing.

And this is Yorktown: a South community where comfort is well-earned — and where a comfortable routine can quietly become the whole story. Which is exactly why this question lands differently here than anywhere else.
