Middle age has its compensations. Youth is bound hand and
foot with the shackles of public opinion. Middle age enjoys freedom.
I remember that when I left the school I said to myself: (1)_____
"Hence forward. I can get up when I like and go to bed when I
like." That of course was an exaggeration, and I soon found that
whenever you have an aim you must sacrifice something of freedom to achieve
it. But by the time you have reached middle age you discovered how (2)_____
much freedom it was worth to sacrifice in order to achieve any aim that (3)_____
you have on view. When I was a boy I was tortured by shyness, (4)_____
and middle age has to a great extent brought me a relief of this. I (5)_____
have now no such feeling and I save myself much discomfort. I always
hated cold water, but for many years I bath in cold seas because (6)_____
I wanted to be like everybody. (7)_____
It was until quite late in life that I discovered how easy it was (8)_____
to say: "I don’t know." I find with middle age no one expects me to
walk twenty-five miles, or to play a scratch game of golf, or to dive
from a height of thirty feet. This is all to the good and makes life
pleasant, but I should no longer care if they do. That is what makes (9)_____
youth unhappy, the vehement anxiety to be like other people, and
that is what makes middle age intolerable, the reconciliation with (10)_____
oneself.
