Everything in my life is either exactly the same or worse. The single thing I can point to as improving over the last decade is my personal maturity and political understanding. And that’s pretty much just a result of getting older, would’ve happened no matter what.
Anyway I’m not gonna go on a whole rant here, wondering if people feel the same, if maybe there’s something I’m missing/haven’t thought of
I know someone else already said this, but wisdom does not come with age, it comes with learning, something which requires time but can also be mostly absent from the time one spends. If you’re more mature and have a better political understanding, you should be proud of that because it’s not something that just happens passively (countless people in our society are testaments to that fact, especially old people who think they are wise just because they are old) and perhaps it might be worth considering how that development could open up new avenues for you, however minor a difference it really makes.
