ABSTRACT
As is the case with Robert Frost’s people along the sand, most of us are creatures of habit; we do not look out far, or in deep, at our real-world surroundings. We tend to categorize our surroundings in particular ways and to use those categorizations throughout our lifetimes as ways to reference position and navigation within our worlds. One way to think about our own mental structures is to consider the simple task of giving directions.
