For many months I ordered my weekly grocery shopping online and had it delivered to my kitchen benchtop. For a number of reasons I returned to shopping in store.
It was interesting to note that I stopped purchasing many of the items that were on “my usuals” list online. Going back to the store meant more options and opportunities to change habits.
It occurred to me that life is a bit like that! I can get into a groove (rut) and follow the “my usuals” list of how I live my life day to day. I can get stuck doing the same things just because I have a narrow view of my options.
It is easy to just do the same things from week to week. However getting out and seeing what else the world has to offer can add a new flavour to our days.

I agree going out breaks the monotony of staying indoors. It’s a better habit to go out and see for yourself some of the items you forget on your list. Have fun outdoors. 🙂
Thanks Ranu :-).
I’m all for seeing, smelling and picking over what I am going to purchase and consume. To heck with convenience. 🙂
Well said Eric! Incidentally I finished your book and really enjoyed it. It contains much wisdom :-).
Thank you and thank you, Lorraine. I appreciate your creating time to read the book and for sharing that you enjoyed it. That means much to me! 🙂
Well said. It’s good to get out and look around and shake up our lives a bit.
Thanks Ruth :-).
I always liked the idea of ordering groceries and having then delivered but never have had that option.
