As Time goes on things hurt you less. when you are young your happiness depends so much from dsy to day on what prople do and say. A word unkind will leave a amart lovers\' quarrels break the heart and all life\'s snall catastrophes seem like giant calamities.

      As Time goes on you grow a hide. Protected from the world outside an inner life you cnltivate that nobody can violate. And so you learn phiosophy. Things that once meant misery you accept without a tesr. Life compensates you year by year. Youth\'s bloom may pass, its beauties wane but so does its anguish and its pain.
