Subconscious channeling

{before I know it, I'll be shopping for a pair of horned-rims}

I have become such an avid Brooks fan that I have begun to channel him without knowing.

Brooks:

We also live in a highly individualistic culture. When we’re shopping for a vacation we’re primarily thinking about Where. The travel companies offer brochures showing private beaches and phenomenal sights. But when you come back from vacation, you primarily treasure the memories of Who — the people you met from faraway places, and the lives you came in contact with.

{more where that came from}

from my 3 for '11 entry:

Although the initial pull was always to explore new places or rediscover old ones, the Who? always ends up trumping the Where? 

Great minds, I s'ppose.  {ha!}
