Let me jump in real quick. Now that I've recaptured my thoughts here. Okay, go ahead. I think the whole idea for me, the pros of traveling really is life experiences. It really helps to, for me, to have a deeper appreciation of many times where I'm at, where I'm currently at. It gives me a chance to look at other things. But I do think it's important to to travel.

Because I think so many times people have a worldview that's only 10 square blocks or five miles. And with that kind of, I'm not going to call it a distorted perception, but with that kind of limited perception, it can cause you to misread so many things that are going on around you and that's going through your sphere.
