I work with a lot of seniors, and as a rule, those who are the kindest most fulfilled are those who took good care of themselves. These are my role models. Almost like clock work when their bodies age, and are not able anymore, their mental health plumets. Sure you can be happy and not be able bodied, but it won't be easy.

I'm not saying in any way exercising isn't healthy for you. But looking down on others becuase they don't do squats or have huge muscles is stupid and toxic. I get loads of happiness from riding my bike but it doesn't build up big bulgy muscles. I've never been able to do squats due to bad knees, but I haven't let that make me think I am somehow inferior.
