Choices

November 3, 2013

We have so many choices in this world, and we’re expected to pick just one.

We have so many choices in this world, and we’re never able to get the best of both worlds.

Should I eat a banana or apple for lunch?

Should I turn left or right?          

Should I go to Harvard or Yale?

Should I do this or should I do that?

Life’s ridiculous, asking us just to pick one, right?

Or maybe it’s not ridiculous. Maybe it’s just not.

Maybe it actually helps us for the future.

And in the end, the choices that we make could end up either wrong, or right.

Wait, life itself is ridiculous.
