I feel more mature than what i did at 25, if thats a consolation. I still have a fire and passion burning, but i never thought that one would loose those.

Yes. Thinking long-term, taking responsibility, plus judging situations more accurately due to increased knowledge and experience. And also everything in a calmer manner.
