A Wren Says

I’ve noticed something. Based on traffic patterns in my city, it feels as if the rules have changed. Whether you are going straight or turning left, it now seems to be perfectly fine to go on red. That clearly is not true. But when enough people are doing a thing, it makes it seem normal.

Perhaps you have fallen into habits that aren’t good for you or anyone around you. You told yourself that it was normal. But to be frank, common does not mean that it is the way that things should be.

Despite what it is that your family has always done, despite what people in your town tend to do, and despite your own personal history, you don’t have to follow the common pattern just because it’s common.

What habits have you fallen into just because other people are doing them? What patterns do you need to disrupt in your life to be happier, healthier, and more whole?
