Do age and wisdom grow together? Why?

Age and wisdom is the wisdom that grows with age, and cuts; each person's wisdom according to their own conditions. Wisdom is differentiated by age, contact with others, and the addition of learned knowledge and social experience and practice to enhance wisdom. Can not be separated from their own enlightenment, these things can neither teach nor learn. It is often said that I was born with the talent will be useful, unique resources.

This is a good question to ask not to mention very relevant. Others don't know what to think or believe, I don't think wisdom grows with age.

Why? - Because I'm a witness. Because I am a witness ah? Speak out to speak out is tantamount to tell the story to everyone, I was April 20th, 1977 to go to Gansu Jingtai County Temple Beach Commune Dongliang brigade a small team of insertion, December 1980 recruitment back to the city, this is what happened in our insertion of the recruitment back to the city.

First of all, let's talk about our youth point about the situation, our point on a total of thirteen people, seven men and six women, that year are in the prime of life age seventeen years old, that time can actually see who is smart and who has wisdom.

Smart and intelligent although old, but more smart and intelligent, not smart and not intelligent although also old, treating people or seventeen years old that way, the change is a little bit not too big, speech and demeanor to give people the feeling of still a sinewy look, which may be people in everyday life, said the so-called honest people it.

Back to the story began to tell the story, is this; our point is seven men, of which there are two according to the current words, is a glimpse of the fate of the kind of people. Two people all day long inseparable, no matter what to do is a beat, with the current words is very synchronized outlook consistent, so far is still close to maintain a very good friendship, but that is in the smart intelligence on the difference is particularly large.

Recruitment back to the city must have a lot of things to do to deal with, which has a smart and wise is this way to deal with things. First of all, all of their own wear with things, in fact, there is nothing, is a bedpan, boxes, benches, washbasin, eating and brushing the teeth of the tank, there is a box of clothes with nails, all the clothes and things and the old folks did business, in exchange for twenty chickens slaughtered and brought it home, and only picked a body without nails of the clothes, or his old man unit issued by the work clothes to wear on the body.

There were only five dollars in the pocket of my clothes, which was used to buy train tickets and have a meal on the train, which was two dollars and eighty cents from Jingtai County to Lanzhou City. The train was a slow train from Hohhot, Inner Mongolia to the East Railway Station in Lanzhou City. He then went to the accountant of the production team to ask for money, that is, work points earned from labor, labor for a day is a work, a work is ten points, which is converted into money is thirty-eight cents.

In those days, the production team had no money, and even if they did, they wouldn't cash in for us intellectuals. He owed him more than 90 yuan for three years and eight months. At that time, his idea was to give or not to give, there must be a statement. As expected, the accountant replied very simply that there was no money. At this time he used his brain to think of a solution, and with his own three-inch tongue, he reached a consensus and agreement with the accountant to give him one hundred pounds of raw grain ground into flour to take home.

He remembers paying back fifteen dollars for the two girls on the point, who seemed to owe the production team ration money, and at that time, what was owed to the production team had to be paid back, or else the recruitment form would not be stamped with the production team's work stamp. The two girls owed him sixty-five dollars, and promised him that when the production team had money, they would mail it to his workplace. Interestingly, in the spring of the following year, the policy of transferring production to households reached the commune and each production team.

The most interesting thing is that his iron friend, will all the things a not a few are brought home, the production team also owed him more than ninety dollars, because the two of them do the same work, drive more than two years of the wagon, the work points earned is the same more. At that time, he should learn from the iron brother's method you say how good, people just don't learn, asked the production team's accountant, played a more than ninety dollars of notes to take home.

Having said all this, I just want to illustrate one point, age and wisdom do not grow together, and now that he is sixty years old, that iron friend of his is still the same in dealing with things, and when it comes to things and problems, he still has a tendon that will not make a U-turn.




It must be the case that as we grow older, our experience deepens, our life experience grows richer, and our wisdom grows with it.

Wisdom does not necessarily grow with age, but experience does. As we grow older, we see more things and experience more things, and our ability to deal with things and adapt steadily increases, which may be what we can often call "wisdom"!

Will. The older you get, the more wisdom you have in yourself, which also shows that wisdom is an accumulative process.

In terms of timeline, the older you get, the more life experience, skills and knowledge you gain as you gain social experience, and young people are often willing to seek out older people for advice for this very reason.

From the point of view of knowledge and technical reserves, older people will master many practical experiences that we can not learn from books, and consider issues more comprehensively and specifically.

In terms of character refinement, one becomes more calm and reflective with age, not jumping to conclusions about something.


Do age and wisdom grow together?

My answer is, not necessarily!

When I was a child, I often heard a saying in the mouths of adults: "If you have the wisdom not to be high in years, you have no will to live a hundred years!

Intelligent people, even if the age of the small, sharp thinking, strong insight into the ability to realize the high ability of the people, wisdom is superior! In addition, they have lofty ideals and aspirations, and they are able to surpass those who are older than themselves!

On the contrary, some people, as they get older, are obsessed with their ideals and views on things, but they are uninspired, their minds are declining, their ability to discriminate is weak, and their thoughts are dull! They are not as good as those who are younger!

Furthermore, due to the age of the young, life experience, social experience is shallow, will also affect the ability to discern, in the event of the older people do not deal with the thoroughness, in place! It is not uncommon for mistakes to be made due to negligence!

The older you get, the more time you have to analyze things, sum up your experience, and make reasonable use of the advantages of the sky and the earth and people, you will also do well and become a wise man in life!

All from saying that age and wisdom do not necessarily increase in direct proportion to each other!




Age and wisdom definitely grow together, as it is often said that old wits are wise. Memory declines with age, but not absolutely, because a sleeping person is not the same as a waking one.

Pretty much, because there are many experiences that will open the door to wisdom? And also with the years of experience in the joy of broadening the horizons of the growth of wisdom there is no absolute but there are miracles to come ~

Do age and wisdom grow together? I don't think so.

In life, we often hear old people say, 'I'm older, so I know more than you do!' Or "You're too young, you'll understand this kind of thing later!

When elders educate their juniors, they also always like to say: I have traveled more bridges than you have traveled; I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice.

This gives people the feeling that I am older than the age of the wiser than you. In fact, wisdom and age is really not necessarily proportional to the wisdom of people depends on the experience and cultivation of people, age is just a messenger to accompany it!

A person, if not read a lot of books, have not traveled a lot of roads, have not experienced the sweet and sour of the world, then, when the days day by day, year by year, when the past, can only get, can only be increased in the face of a line wrinkles, head to add a root of white hair!

There is also the precipitation of wisdom is not only book knowledge can be achieved, some people have knowledge, but not necessarily wisdom, must go through their own experience, contemplation, accumulation, summarization, in order to make knowledge in the integration of wisdom!

So, in a sense, growing older is just an accessory in life; wisdom does not grow at the same time as age!




Yes, the water rises up and the profit boat travels!
