the "d" word

in my opinion, life needs be only summed up by one word: decisions. life is all about the individual making various decisions, no matter what it be about. what time to wake up, what to wear, what to eat, what to say, along with an infinite number of other decisions. it may also be viewed as what not to wear, eat, or say. we may feel that just one decision made in bad taste or without completely thinking it through may ruin us. or we may be so delighted by one decision that we think we are on top of the world. for me, decision making is tough. i have come to realize though that i am the one who makes it difficult. my best advice for myself would be to just do what i feel is right and not think about it so much. taking time to ponder about what choices we are going to make isn't a bad thing, but i believe too much of it may lead to ultimately not making the best possible choice. all i can hope and strive for is to attempt to do the right no matter what, and if i base my decisions on that, i can never go wrong.
