That depends on what you define as really good and how much effort you are prepared to invest. Sometimes luck plays a part in our achievements, sometimes it plays a part in squashing us. But most of the time our lives are the sum of our actions.
My life after 50 has not been what I imagined at 40 but I am not complaining. I got to hike to the bottom of Grand Canyon twice, I bought a bicycle, I met internet friends. Built a new house, was gifted with grandkids and generally have enjoyed the trip.
Sure there is the usual crap of life but it is also a challenge to overcome.
When this lockdown ends let's go out for a beer and burger and talk about life after 50.
