Comfort, Habits, and Change

Ever negotiate mealtime with a young child? Toddlers often have a few favorite foods, and have to be encouraged repeatedly to try new things. Especially vegetables and things not just sweet. 

Over time, we might be able to develop a fondness for spinach and broccoli and such. Or, we could just subsist on goldfish crackers and mild cheese and grapes cut into quarters. Forever.

Tastes on so many things tend to stay in the comfortable. We listen with nostalgia to the music of our teen years. We might find an author we like, and read that person's entire catalog.

Any of our interests or hobbies, especially any way we choose to spend our time and money... we get established and invested. Not necessarily a bad thing, unless we feel stuck.
