I have a question for old people

Okay, I know there's not that many old people here, and I only really know of one, but nonetheless I'll ask my question: when you're growing up, it seems to be that your personality and knowledge are constantly changing, but does this continue for the rest of your life, or is there a climax where you eventually stop evolving as a person? And even if you do keep changing, does the rate in how much you learn change?

[quote] when you're growing up, it seems to be that your personality and knowledge are constantly changing, but does this continue for the rest of your life, or is there a climax where you eventually stop evolving as a person?[/quote] Only if/when you choose/decide that "you know everything that you want/need to know and there's no point in learning anything else". Some people "close shop" pretty early, some later, some never. I am not planning on ever getting to that point or decision. There is always going to be something that I have not considered or wasn't aware of. I am open and looking forward to each and every time that happens. [quote]And even if you do keep changing, does the rate in how much you learn change?[/quote] The rate of change is remarkable when you are young, so many new things to learn and experience, so much change in your body, your mind, your experiences that the amount of change that CAN occur in your youth is amazing. But that change, that growth, that process only happens when the individual wants and allows it to happen. But I will say that as you get older, there is less and less that really surprises you, especially when it comes to human nature.
