"我说真话,不是我想说多少,而是我敢说多少,随着年龄的增长,我敢说的多了一点。"

Simplified Meaning:

As we get older, we often become more comfortable being honest and saying what's on our minds. When we're younger, we might hold back and not say everything we think because we're afraid of what others will say or do. For example, a young person might not tell their friend that they didn't like a movie they just saw together to avoid hurting their feelings. But as they get older, they might learn to share their true opinions more, knowing that honesty can lead to better understanding and stronger friendships. This idea suggests that with time and experience, we find the courage to speak more of the truth, even if it means taking a risk. So, in our daily lives, we can try to be a little braver about speaking honestly, knowing that it's a skill that becomes easier with practice and age.
