What do we return with?
Piaget:
Finally, as the child becomes conscious of his subjectivity, he rids himself of his egocentricity.
Luke 15, 31-2:
'My son, you are here with me always; everything I have is yours. But now we must celebrate and rejoice, because your brother was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.'"
From an Amazon review of James Kunstler’s “The Long Emergency”:
He speaks of "going back to the land"

In the process of packing, my "memory box" has now been placed in a shoebox. What is in it? Just a bunch of programs, photos, papers, and the like. It's very concrete: I can look at it, open it up, and pull out memories.
But my memories aren't exclusive to this box; everything I see, everything I touch has a history. And although I find myself phasing in and out of what may be considered a proper conception of space, I know this too, will hold memories.
Semisonic:
Closing time - time for you to go out, go out into the world.
Closing time - turn the lights up over every boy and every girl.
Closing time - one last call for alcohol, so finish your whiskey or beer.
Closing time - you don't have to go home but you can't stay here.

Wonderful thoughts and writing. I am amazed that you can put four years of college into a SHOEBOX!!! Your feet aren't even that big! Of course, you always did like to travel light. Anonymom
