Does wisdom really come with age? It depends on the culture

[Gawdzilla Sama]

I am 65 next month.


So fart the only general difference I've noticed between an old fool and a young fool is the passage of time. An old fool may not make exactly the same stupid mistakes. He doesn't need to,he finds more than enough new ones.

"If I had to do it all over again, I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner."

BTW, I'm only 18, but I respect my elders.

In cat years...

Growing up,I feared most of 'em, liked a few,and respected fewer..

Personally at the age of 61 I am a huge amount wiser than when I was at 30 or even older. Most of that wisdom though comes from the increasing realization of how little I really know. Strange considering I knew almost everything when I was 17.
