choices

i just hate hearing the overused phrase "i have no choice" because we always have a choice. no matter what we do in this world, it all comes down to choices. like neo, when he had to choose between the red pill or the blue pill. although part of me still believes that morpheus just drugged neo and all those matrix stuff didn't actually happen, funny thing is that the drugs wasn't on the pill, it was on the water. so whether neo took the blue pill instead of the red, nothing would matter, he would still be crouching down on one corner of that room drooling over saving Zion in his head. well anyway, going back to the point of the matter, it all boils down to choices. it comes on a daily basis like which pair of shoes to wear, or whether to prefer contact lenses instead of prescription glasses.simple things really.simple choices.but sometimes life gives you very difficult ones.some could determine your future.some could determine your blissful happiness.and some even a matter of life and death.now going back to school when we were taking multiple choice type of exams, we all prefer to have less choices.most common is 4 choices for one question.easy.but what if  the professor gives you 100 choices for one question.you're gonna lose your mind.i mean how the hell are you going to choose the best answer out of 100 choices?problem is, they're almost the same.it's hard.cut it down to 10 choices.sounds easier but still hard.because you have 10% chance of getting the right answer so you could move on to question number 2.if we're going te decide for it, in exams, the lesser the choices, the easier it gets.given 2 choices.easy.cross out the stupid one and go to the next question.but in life, it's different.it's almost the complete opposite.the lesser the choice the harder things get.in exams, so what you had question number 1 wrong?you still have 99 more.or maybe more.the checker would just put an X mark on that particular number.so what?big deal.but in life, given 2 choices for something huge.how the hell do you choose easily?there's no turning back.there's no X mark.i think this universe by design is supposed to give you that hard choice at some point.or maybe, probably, entropy has something to do with this.but whatever it is that'd eventually lead to complete disorder, at the end of the day, you are the one making that choice.so you better man up and back your choice up.and don't ever say you don't have a choice.because even if you're pushed to the corner with only 1 choice left,not giving a fuck would always be the other choice.
