I wonder if that’s why older people tend to score higher on life satisfaction scores?
When you’re young, you’re full of emotion towards the world and as you age you either abandon the desires or learn coping strategies. Eventually you’ve abandoned enough desires ranging from the “holy shit! I wish BOB WOULD STOP CHEWING LIKE THAT!” rage to the “I’ve gotta work hard to make something of myself!” that you can actually just sit back and enjoy a day.
- me_me_me 5y agoThere are plenty of older people that rage and throw fits, I's say it depends on personal growth and perspective, not age (though both comes with time as we get more experiences). Sadly some people never look back or inward and never grow beyond their basic instincts.
