Before she turned fifty, Susan was able to do things she enjoyed on the basis that they were worthwhile for their own sake, but now that she is over fifty, even though she does those same things she no longer feels any joy in them and feels only bitterness and resentment, punctuated by brief periods of smug schadenfreude when she thinks about those who are still young will one day be as old as she now is and will, she presumes, also find no happiness or contentment in life.
