Grow Or Get Old

As we age our thoughts should grow
Stagnation can just bring mould
I now know that I don't always know
A hard head is a sign you're getting old
New ideas can bring some enlightenment
Closed minds, closed hearts is just a waste
The world and its changes, no point fighting it
Adapt and teach the young what we have faced
