Has Life Hardened You or Softened You Up?

[FeverPitch2]

Hardened and humbled

Exactly this.
I'm careful where I expend my energy.
I've learned that a lot of shyt I used to care about isn't really worth it.

 

[KingTxo]

Hardened. Wouldn't be where nor who i am if i were soft. Grew up in environments and lived through various situations where being soft was not an option.

 

[CrushedGroove]

Both. Less trusting, but more thoughtful and compassionate. Less prone to violence and would rather talk, but more apt to devise a way to kill you with my surroundings. Always help the poor, but if you able in body and mind you only get it once.

[dora_da_destroyer]

I’ve grown softer

 

[T.H.E. Goat]

Due to recent events I’ve become more compassionate to other people’s plight.

I’m still hardened but mostly to protect my family and loved ones

I have no problem looking out if I got it because it all comes and goes

 

[Indeed]

hardened

 

[2CT]

hardened because i used to alter my preferences just to work with other people but now i stand ten toes on the shyt

i'm more sure of myself as a person then ever too which in turn allows me to appreciate my own time more

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

Life has softened me as I got more health problems with age

 

[Turbulent]

Older i get, the more empathy i feel. So in a sense it made me "softer"

 

[DaylitoJames]

Hardened

 

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

I honestly dont know, might be a mix of the two. What I do know is that I've kept to myself more with age. I used to be far more sociable in my teens and early 20s. I've also kinda realized due to the way im wired up top, I might never truly get what I seek: a piece of mind.

Great question.

I think life has softened me, actually. I just made 42 and the first half of my life was considerably harder than the latter half (so far). I worked really hard, every minute of life was scheduled and maximized. I didn't even chill in the summer, all work (academic camps, mad homework, etc).

Otoh, my current life is one of ease. All I have to do is remain reasonably cute, cook, and clean. That's super easy and I have free time to pursue my own interests.

I went to a Catholic school that still had nuns. When I met them and found out what they do, I thought to myself, that sounds dope. They just basically read all day, teach ofc, but hey, that's not bad. I only decided against it bc I liked boys too much. But I ended up living my dream bc I can actually read all day. I have a million hobbies and a whole craft room. Things worked out SO well. Its truly a blessing.
