[I wish I knew all these stories or had the inclination to make them up. I wish I could sit on soft pillows and drink molten lava. I wish I could make love to the sky. I wish I could eat the corn of joy and sorrow.]

Fear Bad Habits More Than Demons

All passions develop in a person as a result of giving in to them. As this surrender happens more and more often, the sinful inclination turns into a habit, and the habit makes the passion a violent ruler over the person.

"Fear bad habits more than demons," said Saint Isaac the Syrian.

When a sinful desire or impulse is at work in you, you must refuse it. The next time, it will work more weakly and will eventually be extinguished entirely. But if you fulfill it, each time it will work with increased power, as it gains more and more control over your will and eventually gives birth to a habit.

-St. Ignatius Brianchaninov, "Words to Those Who Wish to Be Saved"

I was taught in my biology classes that when puberty kicks in, there will be a natural attraction towards the opposite gender. So I thought it is quite normal for a boy at that age to feel naturally inclined and nothing to worry about. But fast forward, I've touched 40, but seems like nothing has changed much since then. Biology teacher: 'will puberty only end in the grave or will there too I'll be curious to know of the hottest ones in the cemetery?'
