Aging: The ‘Good News’

The younger minds tend to perceive difference more readily. Like looking out at life’s experiences through separate windows. I expect this is just a symptom of neurological processes. An older mind’s ability to perceive similarities rests in that biology as well. As we age the mind’s billions of synapses continue to connect in more numerous and subtler ways. Wisdom is, after all, the ability to see ‘outside the box’ of instinctive reactions and impulses. Eventually, every older mind should see the thread running through the way.
