Turning into someone who can enjoy life in my 50s

At some point, as written in this table
I changed into someone who can enjoy life
That happened after gaining a lot of experience in my 50s
Because I realized what is more important
than wasting time, based on my own standards
I started to ignore it when criticized by others
I often see criticism in online comments, but
that person's standards are by no means correct
Furthermore, when I look at the words of the person criticizing
they don't realize that their own worries are also being highlighted in the process
The content of the criticism is exactly what the person is worried about themselves, which is why they want to assert dominance
Seeing the critical words, I think, I see...
They are worried about that...
For me, comparing people's lives to rank them or asserting dominance, or having it done to me,
has become a completely irrelevant topic
The same goes for being disliked
It is common for people to dislike someone and vent their frustrations on them, and
it is impossible to be liked by all 100 people
Even if I force myself to get along with people I don't click with,
if they are going to talk behind my back anyway,
I don't mind being disliked, and I stopped wanting to force myself to get along with others in my late 40s
If I'm going to be talked about behind my back even if I force myself
It's a hassle, and
I prefer a few relaxed friends who can forgive each other for anything and just say, 'Well, that's fine.'
Now that I'm in my 50s, I just want to have fun, that's all.
