Diversity of experience, especially, travelling and mixing with people from different cultures provides an opportunity to enlarge our frame of reference.

By experience I'll assume what our senses or consciousness is focused on.
One may focus on a person, another organism, a scene, an environment, etc..
One may experience ideas and consider the many kinds of ideas, logic, math, music, artistic, factual, fictitious, and the many other dimensions.
One experiences through their senses, and an experience can be the interacting responses to sensory stimuli. (Maybe a steaming, hot fudge sundae with maraschino cherry...)
Internally, we have the malleable states of consciousness; emotionally: depression, elation, love, hate, paranoia, awe, euphoria, humor, projection, empathy, surprise, etc.
We also have the altered states of consciousness: dreaming, reverie, out-of-body-experiences, meditative states, drug states and hallucinations of all sorts, coincidence, and....(?)

What should we make of all this?

What parts of my matrix will I visit today?

(And yet I wish for more. Drugs are scary and the intoxication not always enjoyable. Can I go anywhere that will get my mind off my mortality? Emotional cycling invariably includes droll and tedious depression. Love is always a welcome relief. Hard to stay focused on that.)
