Decisions, decisions. I can be so indecisive! It takes me forever to make up my mind. I'm not sure why... I guess I just try to figure out what I like the best. For instance, I went to a Tea house tonight with some friends, and we had a real Asian Tea service. Very cool - we got to try all kinds of teas, along with Dim Sung (Chinese wraps and dumplings), and dessert. We had these things called "mochi". Kind of like a sweet, doughy ball. We tried many different flavors and I liked them all. I had a hard time picking my favorite.
When it comes to ordering at a restaurant, I take forever pouring over the menu. I look at every type of food and try to figure out what I'm in the mood for. I literally go through the "tastes" in my mind. Like steak... do I want steak? Chicken or pasta? What if I order pasta and I'm really in the mood for steak? I want to know all of my options before I pick, so I don't miss out on the best stuff.
I eventually get to a decision, and usually the outcome is good. I've learned that yes, I can be happy with most decisions I make. However, the lengthy process before I get there makes me wonder. It's like I don't want to just stick with one thing, I like to keep my options open. I like variety, and I don't want my tastes or experiences to be defined as one thing. Is that weird? I want the ability to change often.
If I do make a decision, I want to make sure the outcome is good. But this is nearly impossible! I can't control the numerous outside forces that effect outcomes for better or worse. So all I can do is just make the decision... jump... and hope for the best!
Does anyone else ever feel this way?

Stephanie,
ReplyDeleteSounds like you are a wise woman, considering your decisions carefully. I am constantly being accused of researching and second guessing my decisions before I make them. They're right!
