So Many Choices...


I have never been one to find it easy to make decisions… I even have difficulty deciding what color underwear to put on in the morning, or whether to have pizza or burgers for dinner. And then there are the really BIG decisions that completely paralyze me, and all brain function comes to a halt.

When most people come to a fork in the road, it’s a relatively simply matter of choosing left or right, A or B (or sometimes C)… but for me, it’s never that simple. More often than not, my mind sees choices as being more like that sign in the picture… a confusing, knotted mess.

My life right now is a bewildering maze of options and I simply don’t know which path to take. My job/career needs to go in a new direction, but I don’t know what… I want to get my writing off the ground, but have too many ideas and can’t decide/focus on just one… and don’t even get me started on the quandaries I face in the relationship sector…

There have been times lately when I wish Life did not present me with so many possible options… that I could just flow along and not have to make so many decisions. It’s not that I don’t want to have any choice at all in where my life goes, but I just wish that the right choices were a little more obvious… I have not had the best track record with making good choices in the past few years, and that is a big reason why I am so over-cautious about making choices now. I have made too many mistakes and I don’t want to make any more…

Well, at least I have decided to have pizza… No, wait! I’ll have burgers…
But, then again…
