No longer have much hankering to travel unless it is in decently luxurious and convenient ways, even though I’ve only sampled maybe 40% of major world regions. Kinda wanderlusted out. Only place I’d be willing to put up with some inconvenience for is Antarctica. And space.

Interesting that so many people resist and fight aging so hard and so successfully (in many significant ways you can avoid aging if you try hard enough, even though physically you will decline and die) Aging is quite an interesting experience. I’m not all inclined to fight it.

In the US there is practically a stigma against accepting aging without putting up a fight. Oddly it is seen as some sort of failure, which I never understood. Reminds me of old taboos against traveling abroad/across oceans as “sinful”

A large part of experience is acquired by living through things and cannot be learned theoretically. At best you can remember old sayings once the event is passed and tells yourself "they got it right".

This is the hard balance you need to acquire as parent: avoid bankrupt risks for your child (risk you cannot recover from) but let him fight adversity. Where is the line ? That is the whole art.
