Yep, uh huh, and YOU KNOW IT, SISTER!!! :dancingp::dancingp::dancingp::hearts::hearts::hearts:



Like a fine wine that improves with age

So has this branch of the Vine in every way;

And yet at times, to me, it may not seem so,

But upon reflection I realize I have grown;

Through the years I've become more and more Christlike

Than before He entered my heart and gave me His life!!!



Love,

Steve

Age is a number

I am young in God

Child-like, not childish



(Ok, not the best haiku in the world, but I had to top BFG, and that's not easy) :laugh:

Thanks for the replies thus far -



to expand just a little bit on my original question...



What particular personality traits of yours have gotten better with age...





EG: I have learned to put others first (thanks be to having children!!!! : ) - I think when I was in my 20's it was ALL about me and how I felt at the time....

AND being self centred (selfish) isn't necessarily a youthful trait because I have met plenty of 20 somethings out there whom are very giving of themselves and don't think twice about it...



I had to learn that.....:winksmile:

Apparently I have. I hadn't hung out with a friend in over a year, and when he was in town a month ago, he said to me, "You know what? I like the new more mature you."

I think so. There are some areas I wish I hadn't changed, and some I need to change more. I don't really notice the areas I have changed unless I regret it...so it's hard to say...



:peace::peace:

Oh, I am much less selfish. More patient (though still have a long way to go there). God has provided jobs for me where I have had to really work on my communication skills in order to be effective, so that is much better (but still needs improvement).

I use humor a lot more and have discovered more creative outlets for myself, as well as gifts I didn't know I had when I was young.

I think I am more aware God is watching.

More grateful of all the blessings;

More aware health is more important;

Reflect more on the why people do such & such.

Learned from experiences becoming a bit mature.

More aware of my guardian angels...
