The personal path that each of us takes going from childhood to adulthood is unique and challenging.

Our parents usually begin our life path by teaching the values of familiarity and safety.  Accepting habituation as an attitude and behavior option allows us to grow within the shelter and safety of the home environment. 

As an adult we often discover that what has worked for us in the past is not working currently.  Until we experiment with new thoughts and behaviors at these 'choice junctions' we tend to stay stuck and frustrated in an unhealthy pattern.
