One thing I have never had the privilege of relating to: The thought of being born, living your whole life, and eventually dying... all in the same place. So many people pride themselves on this concept. It happens everywhere. They live their entire lives in the same place. Never exploring beyond the boundaries of the familiar and comfortable. Never opening their minds to take in new ideas and new cultures... new ways of thought. While I'm happy that these people find pride in this process, it makes me sad. There is an entire, vast, complex world out there.
How can one not want to get out there and explore any of it? It blows my mind.
