a collapse in habit


“It may be a habit that once acquired is never lost… But being loved of course, is being loved because, or being loved despite, or being loved… Most habits occur because of laziness. We over drink because our friends do. We overeat because our parents think we need more flesh on the bones. And perhaps my worst habit is over loving. And like those that live to excess I will be broken in two by my unwillingness to control my feelings.”
