With pleasure there is a tendency to form bad habits, and this is the most varied of the emotions.
26
In the soul, bad habits show up as pride, love of money, thirst for honor, delight in conflict, and envy.
27
In the body, they show up as eating anything and everything, the tendency to overeat, and indulging in binge eating in private.
28
Just as pleasure and pain are two plants growing from the body and the soul, so there are many branches shooting off from each of these plants.

But clear thinking, like an expert gardener, pulls out the weeds, trims, supports, waters, and cares for the plants in every way. So it tames the jungle of habits and emotions.
