Why
Old?
BY Josephine Lowmon

What is that old saying-some-
thing about folks can learn only
through experience? That classi-
fles large portion of us as fools.
There are a few highly intelli-
gent persons who seem to be able
to learn from the PHILOSOPHERS and
experiences of others, but most
of us have to bang our heads
squarely against the barn door OF
our own experiences before we
really learn anything-just like
the blind horse that didn't give
darn.
Even sadder, some Of us can't
learn from our own experiences.
We grippe and moan and null or
grieve. We feel guilty or defensive
or hurt. That is when experience
is destructive rather than con-
structive, when it Injuries rather
than helps.
We would all be much happier,
much healthier, and much better
integrated, much wiser and much
better company, for others and
for ourselves. if we would garner
the valuable lessons which expert
ence provides and forget the rest.
the unpleasant part.
A noted psychologist once told
me that men and women who are
divorced several times repeat a
pattern. They select the same
type person over and over again,
one with the same characteristics
which made the first marriage
impossible. These individuals were
not able to learn from their own
experiences.
Take weight reduction. Many
women go through the depriva-
tions of reducing diet, and then
as soon as they achieve their cor
rect weight they slip back into the
eating habits which made them
fat in the first place.
We lose friends through Snappy
remarks and temper. and say we
will never do it again. We feel
temporary regret. Soon the sparks
fly again. We did not really be-
lieve what we should have learned
through experience.
Few people learn from the ex-
perience of others, and almost as
few learn anything constructive
from their own experiences. I
think this is because so few people
are able to look at themselves OBJ
jectively, as though they were an
other person.
