Its interesting to think about. Early in life we're so eager to cartograph our senses so that we can navigate the word. Makes sense that the things that have the most impact early on orients ourselves to mirror that impact later on through through internalizing and reinterpretation. You start off at the top of a mountain point and even the slightest breeze can set you off, biased to an orientation.

It really seems that way. I'm not a car person at all, but when I started car shopping, I was surprised how quickly I become interested in what engine, what clearance, what gas mileage.

It's almost like we fall into patterns of self reinforcing behavior/interests.
