Age and Experience aren’t Really the Only Predetermining Factors of Wisdom

It lies in the ability to receive it (wisdom), interpret, and apply it

Age is how you know how long you’ve lived on earth. But it’s not necessarily a determining factor to one’s intelligence or wisdom applied. People can grow old and refuse to let life and its teachings penetrate them. As such, they remain unwise.

The ebbs and flows of life are there to teach us lessons about how to navigate the world. If we do things that aren’t to our true selves we’re bound to keep falling prey to life’s torturing moments — be it people, the wrong career, and so on. In the same way, aligning with our true selves come from digesting life lessons and following suit in what is in tune for us.

Age and experience remain nothing without the ability to change our perspectives and interpret life as it materializes. If one chooses to be stuck in a belief that no longer serves them, it means that even if they grew older, they refused to apply the wisdom to upgrade according to life's wants. Similarly, you can experience things greater than the next person but if do not assimilate the life lessons and grow from them, you remain an infant in the head and mind.

This explains the reason it’s important to be present and flexible while living to tell the story later and improve somebody else’s life. Survival, on the other hand, would mean scaling through life not fully understanding its meaning and what you’re existed for. It’s painful going through life this way (the latter). If we’re not able to use our experiences to better somebody else life or experience, we are not applying the necessary wisdom in the form of life lessons required to fully age and be wise.
