I don’t know about you, but, while I’m in some ways a massively habitual person, I also have a tendency to float between different things in life - ‘fads’ as it were. My parents vividly remember the period of time when I wanted a BMX, although I don’t remember it at all. I can, however, remember lots of things that did pass by - cub scouts, judo, skateboarding to name but a few. Which is why I think it’s interesting to think about the things that I have stuck to. Here are some:
- Playing the guitar - despite the fact that they spent huge amounts of money for piano lessons, my parents still let me borrow a guitar from a friend and teach myself. And, for some unknown reason, the guitar stuck, whereas the piano didn’t, although I still play every now and then.
- Linux - I’ve been into computers for years, and many things were on and off. To be honest, there is a part of me that is surprised that I kept coming back to Linux, but it’s certainly something that has stuck, and, beyond that, become a large part of my life, and hopefully my future.
- Christianity - although an underlying part of my life for 20 years now, I can’t say that it’s been all plain sailing, but it’s definitely something that has stuck.
