“We don't grow older, we grow riper.”
— Pablo Picasso
Simplified Meaning:
As we go through life and get older, we don't just age physically; we become wiser, more knowledgeable, and better at handling things. Think of it like a fruit. When a fruit ripens, it gets sweeter, tastier, and more enjoyable. Similarly, as people experience more, they gain valuable insights and skills. Imagine a person in their early twenties just starting their first job. They may not know a lot about the work yet. Ten years later, they will have learned so much more, and their experiences will make them much better at their job. It's not just about the years that have passed; it’s about growing in understanding and abilities. When you face challenges, the lessons you learn make you "riper" and more capable. So, don't worry about getting older. Instead, think about how every year adds to your wisdom and makes you a more well-rounded person. This way, you can apply your experiences to lead a richer, more fulfilling life.
