Learn another language. One of the most profound experiences I’ve ever had is reading an idea/thought that just doesn’t exist in English. It’ll help when you do all this traveling people are recommending. French or Spanish, depending on where you live. Or both. I really want to learn Arabic, too, but there are sooooo many dialects…

Traveling to a new place where you can immerse yourself in a foreign culture, see unfamiliar nature and broaden your worldview. It is not only enriching internally, but also helps to better understand yourself and the world around you.

Being stranded in the wilderness. That s**t is the quickest character builder ever. You realize how frail everything is and walk away a different person, thankful for every little thing in life.

For those in the US, I think everyone should serve on a jury at least once I know that a lot of people try to get out of it, but it’s important to see how the justice system actually operates even for cases that don’t seem all that impactful- Going to trial does impact people. And people need to see that most cases are not like an episode of Perry Mason. And they need to see how a disparate group has to work together to reach a consensus, if it comes down to that. (I served on 3 so far, once as an alternate, so I wasn’t included in deliberations, and 2 struck deals before it got that far. But I learned a lot.

I’ve read “sex” as an answer but I want to add, sex with someone who loves you (it’s way more intimate and fulfilling).
