Still learning after all these years

Eye glass temple inside details
See the 140 on the eye-glasses temple? Temple is the arm that goes over your ear. The ‘140’ is the length in mm. Never knew this.

Never stop learning. And sense when to commit to your beliefs.

Keep learning. And at some point in your maturity, you’ll have your priorities prioritized, so the major learning is solidified.

Remember, wisdom comes from experience, and experience comes from making mistakes.

Additionally in your maturity, you’ll make fewer mistakes because you’ve learned so many important truths.

Embarrassed to say that after a lifetime of wearing glasses, i never knew temples had more than one size.

Heck, i never knew the “eyeglass arms” that go over your ears are called temples.

How is that possible?

Not a single person, no doctor, no assistant, no employee, ever mentioned this.

Have three pairs of glasses purchased six months ago. None of them fit right. The left side generally lays well, but the right side is completely “off the rails”.

When you’re at the eye doctor, you kinda “smash them on tight” to make it look good.

Turns out, that’s not the way they sit day to day.

After a lifetime of seeing it fit wrong, i simply got used to the poor standard.
