Human development continues throughout life. However, there is a stereotypical thinking about older persons as those who stop any activity the moment they end their professional careers. This article focuses on seniors’ passions and hobbies of seniors — the way in which they are discovered and developed to foster continuous personal growth, improve the quality of life and, above all, give meaning to life. To confirm that passions can also be developed in old age, a survey of 129 seniors was conducted using a qualitative interview. The types of passions and hobbies identified and the meanings attributed to them are described in the empirical part of the text. The findings confirm that developing passions and hobbies gives meaning to seniors’ lives and helps them feel fulfilled and satisfied with their achievements.
