I find the older I get, the more I can understand people and situations. For example, in my classes, my students will talk about their situations (financial, marriage, etc.) , and while I don't always bring up my own experiences, I can say that I know what they are going through. Life is not always easy. How you deal with it is most important.
When it comes to people, there is a lot that I understand as well. I seem to be extroverted, but I am actually an extroverted introvert. That means that I have to, sometimes, push myself to get out there. (It is also why I like teaching online!)
I will say that being this type of person helps me to understand that, on the other end of some relationships, the other person might just be have to push themselves to get out there, too. That's why I have learned to give space when needed. And, surprisingly, I am happy with this. I mean, why push it? Life is so much easier when you just allow it to flow!
