I think that we have a great opportunity to impart our wisdom and our knowledge and our experience to this younger generation. It may be different times, but experience transcends time, and wisdom transcends time.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As human beings we value the experience that comes with age. We are reminded over and over again with statements like 'older and wiser' and 'respect your elders,' promoting age as something to be cherished and respected.
What we call wisdom is the result of all the wisdom of past ages. Our best institutions are like young trees growing upon the roots of the old trunks that have crumbled away.
The wisdom and experience of older people is a resource of inestimable worth. Recognizing and treasuring the contributions of older people is essential to the long-term flourishing of any society.
With age comes a greater wisdom, an ease and comfort with oneself.
Wisdom is the power to put our time and our knowledge to the proper use.
Even youngish men can acquire wisdom as time goes by.
Experience is a revelation in the light of which we renounce our errors of youth for those of age.
Surely wisdom will come as we listen to learn from children, parents, partners, neighbors, Church leaders, and the Lord.
Much of the wisdom of one age, is the folly of the next.
The older I grow the more I distrust the familiar doctrine that age brings wisdom.
