Changing Your Loves and Longings

Our loves and longings are shaped by our habits, leading us to embrace things we once disliked. Habits influence our preferences, like transitioning from disliking coffee to developing a love for it through daily rituals. Despite knowing the negative effects of coffee, the love for it persists due to conscious decisions. Habits have a significant impact on our lives, outweighing mere knowledge. Our habits not only influence our loves but also our relationships, as we tend to become like the people we spend time with regularly. The environment we are in, like the urban core of Portland, plays a crucial role in shaping who we become, acting as a formative entity guiding our development.
