As the later years go by, and you realize how fortunate you are to have lived this long, you also begin to realize how much you have experienced, and how much more you still to know.
What an interesting combination – more experience, but still haven’t make a dent in what still needs to be known. If nothing else, it makes you more careful in all your considerations. And this may be the most valuable lesson of all. “Go easy – there is always theoretical quicksand ahead.”
To many, much younger, this may seem to be hesitation, or an unwillingness to act or decide, and they may be right. One must be careful here – it is easy for one to lead to the other.
