Bad Habits




Sometimes every single one of us falls into having bad habits. Most times we smoke, drink, etc.
 
The list for bad habits can go on but we all know what our bad habits are. We tend to think after an indulgent night that what we did actually harmed us. Like drinking too much again like the rest of the week, or perhaps had a one night stand with some random chick, maybe took some drugs or went gambling with the last money you saved.
 
There is another bad habit I did not mention: using a friend, you maybe pretend to be her bestie just to get yourself where you want to be, but in the end we all know the devil wears Prada. You may call her up asking her favours, when all you want to do is party, tell her some lame ass sad story so that she feels guilty and then do what you ask.  You pretend to care about her but when she really needs you, you get so angry because she disrupted your plans.
 
Also I think the friend being used also has a bad habit of not standing up for herself. Any coin can flip two ways so she is just as guilty. I am not condemning anyone who has a bad habit, we all have them. Bad habits are also not easy to break, you break one you get a new one. It is called the circle of life.
 
Then again it is only us standing in front of a mirror with a conscience judging ourselves, making promises to ourselves to better the situation. Just until the next time we do something bad again. Sometimes being bad feels so good at the time that we lose perspective of who we really are and what we really want.
 
I say let's not judge, but let's not be used either. Be open-minded and open hearted, that way you can see something for what it really is. Let's just try and break one habit that will benefit us better, the habit of using people like we want to. Let's stop pretending we care when we don't, let's stop people from using us for what they want. Live your life, your way with your rules.
 
Do not live the way people expect you too, love who they want you to love, jump when they want you to jump. Be your own person and stand your ground. That way you won't fall for just any bullshit.
 
No matter who we are, we can't judge but we can have open eyes about any situation. Your bad habits don't care if you are okay or not but when you look into the mirror you know the only truest person in your life is the one reflecting back in the mirror.
