Choices

Hello Feelings Hallow... :)
It really has been quite some time since i've posted anything on my blog.
So, I sat down to write..all geared up with enthu...only to find a deluge of thoughts rummaging my mind..!!

This may sound hypothetical...but it really seemed as if each and every thought is waiting to be expressed...I could actually hear their combined echoes..."Pick me..!" "Pick me..!"

I was baffled...what now...how am I supposed to pick n choose...there was just too much to choose from..way too many options...!!
For an instance I thought to myself..let me just drop this whole idea of blogging today...I'll start some other day...absolutely afresh...

But then it struck me...like lightening strikes clouds...that this is exactly what I want to write about...
This dilemma of making 'Choices'...that too all the time...all along our life...

Yes...Choices...
It ain't a simple thing to do...trust me...!!
Right from the time when a child is born...this never ending and eluding circle of making choices starts...from color on the walls to name...from choice of school to choice of playground...from being a topper to being a mediocre...from which college to which job...!!!
The choice between right and wrong...between good or bad...practical or emotional...childish or responsible...ethical and moral...subtle or bombastic...and so on and so forth..

It's not entirely about the major decisions of life...choices have to be made for even the smallest thing or a gesture...n so..we make umpteen choices everyday...

But we always fail to realize how this simple art of making choices has actually made our lives so complex n so convoluted for that matter...
The answer is simple and undeniable...we now have too many options to choose from...too many options even for the simplest and the tiniest things...
We have hundreds of variants...thousands of alternatives...solely at our discretion...
for homes..for food..for jobs..for clothes..for accessories..for electronic gadgets......it's a never ending road...

So, in a way..we are responsible for jinxing our rights to make choices...for making it the most atrociously difficult and debatable idea...!!
