I'm 50 yrs old and feel like life is passing me by. Does anyone else feel this way?

I've had to take a hard look at my life and to see that I will never get to do or enjoy some things..that the time/season had passed so I could grieve it and let it go...to then be willing to embrace what 'life' has to offer me now. It is very painful but if you literally invite God into it then the ability to grieve and let go is made easier and takes less time to do... I think the key is to find out how to truly know and love yourself so you can then operate out of that place....finding ways to care for the little child within and the exhausted lonely sometimes sad or angry adult. If we invite God into to it, we can go on an incredible journey of self-discovery and healing right where we are...right in the seemingly 'prison' that our life has become in the natural. One thing God has taught me is never feel guilty over being human and having needs. This is one of the hardest things to do in all of human experience... we first must learn what it means to truly love...we think we know, especially if we raised children but this is different because there are hardly any rewards or warm fuzzies. This is literally where the ship sometimes hits the fan, lol. I've done the caretaker thing vs. caregiver thing, I've done it without God & with God, without boundaries and with personal boundaries, with guilt and without, with help and without, with illness and pain and without etc. and the most important thing is to do it with God, as a caregiver with boundaries/self love without guilt or shame because you are human. I still feel like crap sometimes and screw up or get sick or just can't take one more TV show or program or question about her mail or doctor appt etc. because I'm human! Lol! Took God 26 years to teach me to love myself, lol, I'm a slow learner, lol.
I think you all are truly and honestly fabulous and beautiful because your even trying to do this and for the ones trying to care for parents who are not and never have been loving..well God bless you all and keep you and give you peace. My love & prayers are with us all
