Occasionally I look back at a journal I kept when I was in my late teens/early twenties. I had the world figured out – or so I thought. Some of it still holds water, but most of it has later been proved false.
Whatever, it was always at least honest and based on what I had learned up to that time. I suppose that in 20 years I will look back on some of the things I wrote on my blog and wonder how I could have felt that way.
I think, with any amount of good fortune, we progress intellectually until we die. At least that's my hope.
