Grateful for some aspects of aging via /r/gratitude

I am grateful for the fact that at the age of 49 I can look back and have data that supports certain things. I have years and years of experience in certain areas even if it’s negative it’s still experience and I can point to it and see patterns and solve problems that way. That is a good part about aging and I’m grateful for that. For example, I can look back for the past 25 years and see patterns in my relationships and in my work life because they’ve come up over and over again like clockwork. It makes me think that I can look at these things and solve them better now with all this information I have.
