Each new experience of love has nothing whatsoever to do with past experiences. It's always new.

After weeks on the road, listening to a language you don’t understand, using a currency whose value you don’t comprehend, walking down streets you’ve never walked down before, you discover that your old “I,” along with everything you ever learned, is absolutely no use at all in the face of those new challenges, and you begin to realize that buried deep in your unconscious mind there is someone much more interesting and adventurous and more open to the world and to new experiences.

So try all the paths and all the tracks until eventually one day you're standing in front of the top that you yearn to reach.
