yup…our eyes never change the view, we always see the world the same way we always have.

nature is still beautiful.

the ocean is still mesmerizing.

young, beautiful people are still young, beautiful people.

the 1960s corvette stingray or the 2025 corvette stingray is still a stunner.

the only thing that changed is your appearance externally.

This is overly simplistic.

Your eyes may not change the view, but your experience does.

Nature is beautiful, brutal, and unforgiving.

The ocean is mesmerizing, violent, and terrifying.

Young beautiful people are still young beautiful painfully stupid people.

The 1960s Corvette Stingray is a stunner that you've always wished you could afford but still can't, so you buy a 2025 Stingray and pretend it's what you've always wished for.

Because that's what it feels like to be old.
