I don't get it. Don't people ever learn from that %26quot;Nobody cares%26quot; quote that appears in the film %26quot;A Bronx Tale%26quot;. many people change at a point when it is not worth it anymore. A point where the damage has already been done. Nobody cares about a person who wasted most of their life purposely. i guess you people would help me understand this question. please no remarks that would be considered offensive. that is just rude.Why do people who fool around with life early regret it when it is too late?
Wisdom comes with age.Why do people who fool around with life early regret it when it is too late?
Erm, because your question is under %26quot;philosophy%26quot;, so I'm not sure if my answer will be relevant ... But this is what I feel ...
When people fool around with life earlier on, they're young and have a greater sense of %26quot;individualism%26quot;, they do what they're happy with, thinking that they will be able to cope with whatever that comes along later on ... It's like a %26quot;principle%26quot; of %26quot;no regrets%26quot;, they do what they want. But little do they know the gravity of the situation, sometimes.
And the reason why people have the least sympathy for people do do this is because they feel it's a tit-for-tat kind of situation.
They had fun once and now they have to pay for their own irresponsible actions. It's an assumption that these people who fool around were adviced before and it's a choice that they made, to fool around ...Why do people who fool around with life early regret it when it is too late?
because it's much easier to fool around and not care, I guess. that's just the way humans are. maturity always comes later usually.
and if it wasn't for those earlier experiences (especially the mistakes) do you think they'd feel any more than complete as they are now? the mistakes we've made in our life are somewhat like %26quot;fulfillments%26quot; too that satisfy our curiosities and helps us distinguish right from wrong better.
I even remember a lesson from grade school days that we should try to fail at least once.. you know because if all we had is success, we wouldn't really learn that much. some amount of mistakes are also essential.
but yeah the problem with some of them is that their realization came too late.Why do people who fool around with life early regret it when it is too late?
Even if you change later in life it's not a waste. Changes like that are made not for other people, but for yourself. So even if %26quot;the damage is already done%26quot; then your efforts aren't all for nothing. It's trial and error. Sometimes it takes a while before you find the right way to handle things. I think bettering yourself isn't ever something done in vain. Why do people who fool around with life early regret it when it is too late?
Personally, I don't agree that no one cares about people
who have wasted their lives purposely. I disagree for
so many reasons that I couldn't name them all here.
People, I feel, do what they know to do. When we know a
better way, we do things in a better way. When I say this
I'm not speaking of knowing something intellectually. I am
talking about knowing it at gut level.
There have been things, and still are other things, that I knew
intellectually for years before I actually %26quot;got it!%26quot; When that
ah ha moment happened, it changed everything inside me.
At that point I could make different choices. It felt as tho
I didn't just have the information in my head but
more as tho I knew it down to my toes.
It felt at that point very organic and it wasn't really very
hard to change directions then and make better choices.
People who have no empathy for people who are %26quot;wasting
their lives%26quot; usually don't have enough experience or maybe
maturity to ask why this is happening.
None of us are totally alike in the resource we have or had
to learn various things. Those resources could be financial,
environmental, social, the way our brains are wired as well
as about a million other things.
I used to have a sign on my desk at work that said, %26quot;Don't
judge me til you've walked a mile in my mocassins.%26quot;
In my opinion, it is always worth it to make positive changes,
regardless of what has gone before, regardles of how old you
are. It is always worth it. And that person is worth it.Why do people who fool around with life early regret it when it is too late?
If a person realises they need to change, it is worth it to the individual especially if they can see they need too. If it makes them become a better person, why not change. Change is forever happening and big ups to those if it means to better themselves regardless of the damage they have done. Life was there to be lived and we all have made mistakes at times and either we learn early or later or not at all.
