It’s funny how we get use to things sometimes….and yet fight other things until the bitter death, maybe we never get used to it.  You can be an addict to all sorts of things that people don’t realize.  You can even be an addict to routine, especially when you find a routine that you like, feel comfortable in, or just find that it makes you feel better.  What is it about some changes that seem so natural and maybe even necessary, but other changes are just met with dispute, anger, frustration….

It’s crazy how good some little things can make you feel.  Something as simple as being able to talk to someone every day to start off the day; for some people it’s as simple as a cup of coffee to start off their day.  Everyone has their own comforts in life, some of us settle for the small comforts in life and are satisfied with the happiness that it brings to us.  Others need material things, expensive things in order to be  happy.  For some people it’s control, they need to be in control of every situation around them, they need to feel powerful in order to be happy. 

I think it’s pretty amazing how most people I know fall into a pattern and then don’t quite feel right if that routine is broken for any reason that they didn’t see coming.  We are creatures of habit, no matter how much some people want to deny it, I still believe it’s true.  I also don’t think there’s anything wrong with having a routine you are comfortable with.  Life is too short to go around miserable, if you find something that makes you happy, you should stick with it, not deny yourself because you feel like you’re getting too set in your ways.  I think a lot of the happiness just comes from knowing what to expect for the day.  I think it makes people comfortable to know what is going on, and nervous and tense when they don’t have something set up for the day.
