Old habits

 

In November I had laser eye surgery, it took my brain about a week to unlearn 23 years of right eye dominance.  7 days to rewire 23 years of neurological pathways.

Quite impressive.  Quite fascinating.  And yet what I find more fascinating is that almost three months later, I still want to wear my glasses.  When I am tired, when I feel ill, at the end of a long day, I want to wear them.

So I do.  I popped the lenses out weeks ago.  I put them on, and I feel as if I can see more clearly.  I genuinely do.  I feel as if I can see more clearly, through my glasses with no lenses in.

The habits I can't break speak volumes about who I am.
