"人は年を取るにつれて変化 特に良くなるための変化に反対するのが本質です。"

Simplified Meaning:
As people get older, they often resist changes, even if those changes are good for them. This happens because they are used to how things have always been and find comfort in their routines. For example, an elderly person might refuse to use a smartphone, preferring their old phone with physical buttons, because it's what they know, even if the smartphone could make their life easier. This resistance comes from a place of habit and fear of the unknown. To apply this to our own lives, we should try to stay open-minded and embrace new things, recognizing that change can bring improvements. If we remember that feeling unsure is normal, we can be more open to positive changes that can enhance our lives.
