*Habits*
As long as habit & routine dictate the pattern of living, new dimensions of the soul will not emerge......Henry van Dyke.
If nothing changes, nothing changes.
Days Of Healing Days Of JoyChange demands new behaviors new thoughts possibly new surroundings. Change demads the willingness to go to war with old habits. Frightening ~ yes. Exciting ~ even more so!
I am willing to risk the security of old ways for the prospect of happy new tomorrows.As long as those habits & patterns remain unchallenged of course there will be nothing new. Habits are like machines routinely consistently stamping out the same product year after year.. They can do nothing else. Theya re made to create that specific product.One reason people read books like this or throng to meetings is they want change~if not total change then at least a modification of the portions of their lives that cause them distress. There are always reasons for us being stuck in the places we are. Those reasons are often our habits & patterns. If the painful consequences of whatever we find hurtful in our lives are frequent & recurring we have a negative pattern. |
