It’s just not actionable. It’s not something you can do.

That's a fair take. But I will say that we just grew a little older together, and I'll take your point to heart when dealing with others.

I get the sentiment, but what is it rooted in? Extreme experiences giving you a new perspective making old anxieties feel like nothing. That's just statistics. That's saying that the longer you live, the more likely you are to experience those kinds of things.

It is something you will do though. So you can rest easy on that part. Sometimes the best course of action is to do nothing.
