Routines 

The routines are hard to break.

They give me comfort  and independence. 

It creates a boundary around me. 

Often keeping people out if they do not know how to open the door. 

New ideas upset my rituals. 

Yet that has allowed me to create art and become a sculptor. 

Each time I try something different I am able to grow as an artist.
