Some habits can be good and some habits can be bad. Habits can change from week to week, and day to day. How fast a habit change depends on how long you have the habit. Habits are performed without thought. You just go through the motions. There is no feelings when it comes to habits. Not performing an habit can sometimes throw you off.
What is a Lifestyle?
A lifestyle are a collection of multiple actions you choose to do daily. It is consistent and does not change from day to day, unlike habits. Choosing a lifestyle required most thoughts and involves feelings. You can have a good lifestyle or a bad lifestyle, depending on the daily choices you make.
How To Make Love A Lifestyle?
Love should not just be a habit. Love involves feelings and a choice to show them. You have to perform actions that show love every day for it to become your lifestyle. Here are some ways you can make love a lifestyle:
• Don’t hate or be angry towards people. Instead, show love and grace towards others. Hate can lead to deadly actions. Just by looking at the news you will see that world is full of hate and what it leads to.
• Be understanding and forgiving towards others. Remember people makes mistakes and sometimes act without thinking.
• Don’t be jealous of others. Be happy for others. Celebrate others success and wins. Don't compare yourself to others. Don’t focus on what you don’t have. Comparing will cause you to envy others instead of loving them.
• Show gratitude and be thankful for everything that you have and your accomplishments. Make a daily list of all the blessings that you are grateful for at the end of the day.
• Don’t be afraid of people. Anxiety can come off as being standoffish and not loving. You can’t be afraid of something that you love. To have a loving lifestyle you have to love people.
• Be friendly towards yourself and others. Don’t beat your own self-esteem down. Say kind and positive things about yourself. If you don't have anything positive to say about others, don’t say anything at all.
• Pray for a loving heart. God is love. Walk in the Spirit and you will receive the ability to love ( Galatians 5:16 & 22). It is nearly impossible to truly love without Christ. His love is unconditional, and that is the type of love we should all have.

More Than A Habit Poem
Love is more than a habit Dove flies above the cabin Shove anger out the way with love and watch what happens. Above hate is love soaring like the dove above the cabin. Drove down with hate and envy; no one can bare it

Why Just Write Is The Best Advice You Don’t Listen To
Before the last 6 months, I hadn’t written anything that wasn’t for my job or university for a number of years. I wanted to write more, I used to write all the time just for fun. I used to write poems and short stories that were just for me. I used to show them to certain members of my family but it was the process of writing them that I really enjoyed.
