Now that we're entering the holiday season and probably giving some thought to the gifts that we want to give the person with whom we're most intimate in our lives, and my thinking about that is always give the gift of experience. And by that I mean the gift of experience, the gift of experiences. Give something that is something that isn't a consumer good, but actually something lovely that you can do together with the person that you're closest to. And that could be going out to some lovely place that you've always wanted to eat at. It could be going away somewhere like a hotel together. It could be experiencing a cultural event, just some shared experience that you can do together, you can talk about afterwards. Because at my age, I don't I don't know about you, I've got enough stuff. I don't want any more stuff. In fact, I'm trying to get rid of stuff. So the less stuff that I can get given, and I, I don't want to acquire any more things, but I love, love, love having experiences, and I love having experiences with those that I'm closest to. So this holiday season, what kind of experiences could you be sharing with the lover, the partner, the person with whom you're most intimate in your life?
