Wasting a life

The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life. Muhammad Ali

Well, this challenges us, doesn't it!

I did a lot of deep thinking and reading early, so I had thought out what I believed and why about a lot of things.

Nevertheless, while in many ways I'm the same and think the same, as when I was younger, in many ways, I do not.

For sure, the world is not the same, so how could we view it the same. We have to change and grow or stagnate.

Are there things we should view differently?
