They say, wine, whiskey, and cheese all get better with age… I have seen people who have aged well and become more beautiful with time. 

At this point in life, as I myself have aged, I would say understanding and wisdom get better with age. The result of that lends to having a better measure of patience. It also makes me feel less need for the drama, the chaos, and the ridiculousness that seems so prevalent in our world. 

I believe that nature, when given a chance to be, gets better with age. The trees that I love so deeply grow and spread, and the wild flowers do the same. Ecosystems grow, and the creatures build their homes and exist and flourish. With age nature blossoms… that is better.

It is said love gets better with age, it grows with age, it matures, transforms, and deepens. It morphs as we grow old together to make us understand what the other feels, needs, and requires. It becomes an unspoken and easy partnership between us, we just know and feel each other. That is better…

With age comes wisdom, they say.

I say; That wisdom is a deepening knowledge of the world and that is better.  We understand deeper how things are, what’s possible, and what you have to just live with to keep your peace. With age comes the desire to live in that peace, to share that with those you care about and love. Sadly with age comes distance, we grow old, the young grow away from us too often… that is not better, it is just the way of life sadly.
