Habit

If you havent read the title of this blog, there is a puzzle for u

what is this thing?

it doesnt go so easily..
if u remove first letter, a bit remains
if u remove first two letter, bit remains
even if u remove first three letters, still it remains
told u, it is very difficult for it to go..

now as you have read the title, yes the answer is habit.

what exactly is a habit? its something which is a part of you. so in-built in you, that you often do it unknowingly. or it is something without which you wont be able to live life as lively you wud with those things. seems a confusing sentence? i ll explain..

in general, someone has defined habit as two types - bad habits and good habits.
for explanation, i ll take help of a bad habit. smoking.. have you seen a smoker, who missed his normal quota? either that person becomes so irritating, you wud feel like kicking him; or he will become so restless, you wud not be able to keep up with his pace with ur eyes.

as i mentioned above, there are two types of habits - good and bad. bad habits are really very very hard to leave and good habits are really very very hard to get hooked on to..

one more thing. many of the habits are deceptive. they seems to be making ur life happy, bearable. but in reality they are making your life miserable. there are some good habits, which make your life miserable now, but help you in long run. (e.g. waking up early in morning and going for a jog)

once more, as habits are very hard to go, be careful before getting habituated to something.

habits are not only related to that of things we do. habit is also for a person. its like u get habituated to a person so much, that you may start taking that person for granted. if the person is good enough to understand that you have become habituated to that person, he wont mind. otherwise that person may feel offended, and the bond with that person may break.

there is one movie, as usual i dont remember name, but in that movie, there is a clear misunderstanding between habit and love. its about a game show. in that, you have to stay with a person for three weeks and one week without even seeing each other. at the end of every week, there will be some questions asked to each other regarding other person. so for this purpose, you have to notice the person you are living with very carefully. so now once you are habitual to the other person in that one month, you get to decide whether you will go for money and a rule which states that u wont meet the other person in next ten years, or ditch the money and go with the person. this is where habit comes into picture. as you have got used to that person, you cant resist the desire to see that person.

this is about the movie, but just think is that right? people in that movie have mistaken habit for love. they say in movie, that the person wont take money coz they will fall in love with each other in a month’s time. grow up..... love isnt a thing which will grow up in one month’s time of introduction. it needs knowing each other, trusting, supporting each other and all...

finally time to confess, something which i have grown habitual to. i have grown habitual to staying late in night in office, wasting time in stuff like surfing, reading manga and all. its not that its completely bad or something like that, its just i dont get complete sleep. and right now I m feeling very very sleepy. so going to sleep. c ya in next blog.

P.S. if you think this is an abrupt end, you can have your own ending to this blog in comments, i wont mind. this was just what i think about habits. if i get to know anything more, i will surely update this blog..
