Home » World As It Is » Why is it that some 50-year-olds, despite having experienced so much in life and claiming to be wise, still fail to grasp certain basic truths? When I ask them not to think negatively, they insist they’re not being negative, just realistic. They say, “This is how humans are. We have endless responsibilities. You younger ones won’t understand, our minds are always preoccupied.” I can’t help but wonder how, after all these years, they still haven’t learned the fundamentals.😡
