Wiser in some aspects of my life for sure, but mostly more knowledgeble when it comes to absorbing facts...and finally making sense of some of the stuff I was taught at school (like chemistry LOL).. Letting go of regrets is also something I have been managing at last.
My interests have expanded over the years and thankfully I still have the ability to retain what I have learned....and I like looking up new stuff. I also like to read (the old fashioned way - with a real book) and I buy more reference books than fiction these days.
Tolerance however.....not so much. I like how the internet has expanded avenues for learning, but unfortunately it is balanced with having to live in the Era of Trolls, Influencers and Other Time Wasters that frankly, the internet, if not the whole world, could do without. It is dispiriting to see how many nutters there are, pushing some crazy agenda to goodness knows what end.
I would also add that at my age (60 plus) I really don't care what people think of me. I probably never really did actually, but now I say so. Give it your best shot if you can but it won't matter to me in the slightest. I can easily remain unaffected by anyone's opinion of what I think and say. My parents didn't raise me to be weak and scared of my own shadow.
