This is the Daily Note.

I'm James A.

Brown.

I just heard about this field, geopsychology.

It studies how where you live shapes your personality.

They claim that Southern people tend to be more agreeable, that the west is more open, that New Englanders are more reserved.

It's not just about weather, it's about temperament.

The science says it's both nature and nurture.

We grow up with certain rhythms and how people speak, argue and forgive all embeds on us without us realizing it.

I certainly agree with that.

My part of the world shapes me.

Western New York has its own feel.

When I travel, I notice it.

But I like to think I'm more than where I was born and that you are too.

So what do you think?

Let me know@jamesabrown.net or call me.

On that note, I'm James A.

Brown, and as always, be well.
