One of the great aspects of our hobby is that it may be enjoyed in so many ways. Some just like a chat, some chase DX, some like ATV, etc..
I think interests change as you get older, so now is perhaps time to reflect.
My interest has always been in the experimental side. I have enjoyed experimenting sub-10kHz, but I have also enjoyed testing over the horizon at 481THz. I like QRP.
These days I am less mobile, so try to experiment at home with FT8 and WSPR modes being my favourites as my voice is poor. In the past I would have dashed in my car to carry out some experiment!
Probably I get as much pleasure from listening as I do transmitting these days. Working DXCC with QRP SSB on 10m 40 years ago has something to do with this! Being retired there is always the next day.
In this hobby there is always something new to try tomorrow!
