Did you also experience the world more intensly when you were younger?
Hmm, I don't think so. If anything, it feels more intense now with my anxiety and just trying to get by. Intimidating things were scarier and simpler things were more enjoyable but that's about it.
Yes, part of growing up is also to develop shields and automatic protections against that intensity of experience. Adults usually develop the ability to focus much moren than children and filter anything else. So in hindsight childhood feels richer, but it also felt more helpless being a victim to all these unfiltered emotions and impressions.
Nah, I was much more detached as a child and teen.
Ever get on a bull?
Sure-Age and Experience may change some things but if you go out of your way and do risky/exciting things odds are you will always feel like you're on the edge of something new.
