Science HABITS A habit is a sticky thing; Much good or evil it can bring; It binds a victim, holds him fast, And keeps him in a vise-like grasp. Bad habits grow with extra speed, Much like a healthy, growing weed. The roots grow deep, the stem grows stout; How difficult to pull it out! Good habits are a little slow; They need a lot of care to grow; If tended well, they grow more fair Than any bloom a plant can bear. Good habits help us all through life; Bad habits bring us pain and strife; Our habits, whether right or wrong, Each day will grow more firm and strong.
