Thoughts on Various Subjects.

"No wise man ever wished to be younger."

So when I first read Thoughts on Various Subjects, I wasn't going to use this part. It didn't really stand out to me until I really REALLY looked at its deeper meaning. When I was younger, I always said that I was never going to grow up. I simply wanted to stay young forever. I wasn't a very wise child. (: After reading this though, it made me realize that I have made a lot of mistakes before. I have done some really dumb things. Lost a lot of friends. Gotten into trouble. Gone against what my parents said. But... I would never go back and redo any of those mistakes to make them better. I learned from my mistakes and that makes me wise. Sometimes life just moves to fast for us to realize what we really should be doing. But in the end, when we are all old, we will look back on that and remember that all those mistakes taught us a very good lesson. No one would want to go back to being young and make those mistakes again or fix any mistakes because that's whats makes us who we are.
