Habits and etiqettes are human - made and society - formed respectively. Habits are self - way of doing things be it food - habits, self- cleansing routines, etc. Whereas, etiquettes, are way of doing things, when you are in a group and have to behave as per some norms.

I am not here to discuss or debate on what habits and etiquettes are bad or good. But to make my point, as to their relevance in our day to day life, behaviours, etc.

I would love your feedback on the following points, I inferred from my learnings and experiences:-

• To live life in an easy way, it is important to have some routines in your work, living, etc; that form a part of your habits. They are good for references, scheduled and sorted life. 
• To be able to have a pleasant presence amongst a group of people, be it your family, society, some social groups, college gang, etc, you have to follow some norms in the form of etiquettes.
• However, how much importance to give to the etiquettes depends on certain factors like occassion, atmosphere, moods, etc.
• One important point, though, is today, the over-emphasis on group, social etiquettes is so much, that we sometimes override the person over it. Be it parents nagging children to behave in a way in their social get - togethers, be it teenagers feeling ashamed of their parents' presence and looks and speaking etiquettes in front of their friends & colleagues, be it pressurising a child to come reluctantly to their kitties or friends' parties or to some relatives' homes and a must list of the way to talk with elders.
• I am not saying etiquettes are not required, but why give it so undue importance, till the other person loses mental cool, has dislike for you, etc. 
• Thus, we should involve self and family in a healthy conversation or family time to inculcate the affinity towards humans and not rejecting others. Many a times, we elders, bitch about others, find our own excuses to ignore a party or a family or a relative, we knowingly and unknowingly, make those norms, which are not suitable or are followed with stress and caution.
• Meetig people, eating in groups, talking with people, should be likable, or a part of our routine and stress-free. We are, on the contrary, continuously judging people on basis of habits and etiquettes.
• Health cannot be limited to just body, but mind and soul too. Unless, we do not make human-friendly habits & etiquettes, we are always in that rigid and stiffen position be in body-posture or in greetings or in our day to day living. These harsh rules today, has caused many social issues, loneliness, stress to have a certain lifestyle, etc.
• You will all believe with me that, when we are with friends, we are so much ourselves and talk & behave with so ease, than in front of our colleagues, peer groups, family, etc. So its important to address this question Why we are comfortable in a certain group always.
• Of course, there are many families, who even today, live without any crutches (Bandhan) of how to behave, talk or live. 
• Habits keep you on the foot and make us organised in you daily routine.
• While, etiquettes, like a certain behaviour during a funeral, a wedding, should be as normally humane.
• Hence, Habits and etiquettes should be a part of you and your social system, such that, you are mentally free to behave, talk; than give undue importance to unwarranted things, which today just are source of show-offs, discrimination in terms of lifestyle, loneliness, fear complexes, inferiority complex, etc.
• Health depends on your habits for your wellness, healthy relaionships, healthy behaviours, healthy conversations. Etiquettes are equally important to make yourslf and others comfortable in each others' presence.
