How to use "Inactive" in context?
Ineffective. That is the word many people use to describe those who are inactive. They often think of people who do not engage in their communities or do not take part in their favorite activities. For some people, this may be the case, but for others, it may be due to circumstances beyond their control.
Inactivity can be a choice or a result of circumstance. For some people, it may be that they feel shy or do not feel comfortable in social situations. For others, it may be that they are working full-time and have little time for themselves.
