I think not only does your "culture" become more permanent as you enter adulthood, but so does your routine. It becomes much more difficult to step outside of your comfort zone and break your routine. You see yourself as belonging to one part of the world and bringing away from that can be challenging.

I think there's a mental discomfort when you start experience the world outside the familiar, subconscious definitions your mind has created. I know there have been times for me when I didn't understand what I was feeling - perhaps homesickness is an expression of this movement outside the familiar? Thank you for the insight you've just given me. I agree with Mr. Bures’ description.

Christina is spot on when she says, "...one must constantly engage in experiences that rearrange our internal structures." Many people fear change and the unknown because it's uncertain what will happen if a "leap of faith" is taken. Many people have a fear of failure and success. Failure means our plans didn't work out; success means our social circle may change -- friends may be lost along the way. People must decide for themselves what they want out of life. If you lose people along the way, so be it. At least you'll find yourself which is much more important. Insightful post.

To be truly free, one must constantly engage in experiences that rearrange our internal structures. Education, psychotherapy, travel/exposure to new cultures, spiritual experiences, or enduring an unexpected loss or life change are only some of means through which we alter our internal structures.
