It makes more sense, but sometimes I am saddened and disgusted by what the truth really is.
In the other hand, being older, and wiser makes it possible to make better choices regarding what is the right/best thing to do for your own life, politics, and the broader world view.
Sometimes, especially when we are young, more naive than we are when we are older, and more emotional, even if we know what is the best choice in the long run, we don’t necessarily choose that.
The more you know, the more likely it is that you will make a good choice, based on facts. Well, what I mean is, you are more likely to do that with maturity.
