I've seen and heard a lot about Horizons and how most view them as a personal domain. A meaningful place in most respects, something that feels like home.

In theory, I can understand it, and how it bends to the whim of the mind and memory. The problem is that I'm not sure how to put that into practice.

What if your comfort is in people, not places? How do you quantify that and use it to craft your sanctum?

Hmmm well, my tendency to take calculated risks tend to have people assuming I'm the opposite of 'wise', pretty much.

You know even "new" ideas had to be inspired by something else, right? I mean unless it was the Original original, I guess, but that's something entirely different.

If I were to make something new like this, I think I'd sit down and think about the places that make me the most comfortable. If there's a few of those, think about WHY they make you comfortable there, or what it is that draws you to those places. It could be somewhere you're very familiar with, or maybe somewhere you only went once but there was something that resonated with you, something that struck you in a personal way. You could always take a little bit of all those things and toss them together, see what you get.

From what little I've experimented with the Horizon so far, it seems pretty good at weaving together ideas even we can't quite seem to form in full ourselves. I mean, the first time I was in there I didn't remember a thing about myself, but it still formed the place I would want to be the most. SOME part of me was still aware of it, even if I couldn't remember it at the time.
