"We learn from experience that men never learn from experience." [Bernard Shaw]

  I told here that Mr. Shaw is bitter and exaggerated. As the proposal is to float Blog by free thinking should not prevent a proposed meditation only by presenting it bitter or exaggerated.
  Experience teaches us a lot, tests whether our theory corresponds to an observable reality. It is unlikely that a machine quit working satisfactorily clipboard an engineer, you must assemble a prototype experiment.
  But let's get into the mind of Mr. Shaw, taking what the hype was he even notice?

===============================

 Had a participant in the discussion group who once brought a text where the stale praised, reflected a little reading your text and did not find anything good in old age.
  If there is a spirit that moves the body this is very dependent on the operation of this machine and biological longer the law of gravity take much of the efficiency of the machine.
  If there is no spirit of our situation gets even worse. Soon, both from the point of view of religious atheist as old age is a major problem.
  If the text presented was superficial and illogical, I decided to delve deeper into the Abyss, check in old age could have something nice, come with me!

===============================

  I'm not the kind of person who has much appreciation for life, I love to people like my wife who loves to live, they speak of the pleasure of life with shining eyes, I confess that I have a twinge of jealousy, I would be more excited, less boring.
  However if someone asks me if I want to die, I'd say not today, nor tomorrow, nor the day after tomorrow, well, not the alternative to aging is dying young. Have you found a good thing in old age:

 IT'S GOOD TO HAVE A LONG LIFE.

  If you have 20 years I sure would like to know everything you know now when I was 10, would be very advantageous, avoid some suffering, other times more profit, we can say that his life would have been more "efficient and prosperous."
  30 When you have the same thing will happen with respect to 20. With their new knowledge with their "experience" could have got more of that girl, that job, done a better deal on that car ...
  Then we found another good thing about getting old:

  Gain experience and it makes our lives more EFFICIENT AND PROSPEROUS.

  But you know what? Mr. Shaw noted very well, so that people who get older and learn nothing from the experience. At family gatherings or meeting up with old friends is amazing how people continue with the same speech, the same modus operandi that keeps them in a life situation that the person says not like.
  You know that aunt who suffered from a type of husband and got another just like it.
  That friend who speaks Company horrors, but still working on it.
  That guy who makes twenty years waiting for a miracle from God in your life or twenty years playing the same lottery numbers and make plans for the next week for a miracle or award that has not happened yet.
  That woman already with 50 and think it's so attractive physically when I was 20 or that you already graying and paunchy middle who thinks all girls are crazy about him.

  Is Mr. Shaw learned from experience that not all people learn from experience.

  In my meditation concludes that the only really good thing that comes with age is experience once keep us alive is a primal instinct.
  If we give her the experience and knowledge, balance, common sense ... old age becomes incredibly pathetic.
  All bitterness of Mr. Shaw somehow left him pathetic, life is not accurate, we are all a bit pathetic, that the accumulation of experience make us the least pathetic as possible, in youth or in old age ...

 Live long and prosper everyone, a big hug!
