come out of the shade.
why do we always seem to make the decisions that we know right from the start will bring us into a dead end? it's as though we all have this weird innate mechanism within us that constantly keeps drawing us into traps we set ourselves, the same mechanism which drags us full speed through each route before we slam straight into a brick wall. a wall which we were so sure wasn't there before. or was it? the question of choice. whether or not we really do have the luxury of being able to choose where we want to go, what we want to do. if we really do have a choice, then why is it some choices are still made when it was so painfully obvious right from the start that they never should have been chosen? maybe its the illusion of choice. we are led to think that we have a choice, when in actual fact everything is predetermined and we are merely pawns in some warped game of snakes and ladders played by some more powerful, omniscient force. this "choice" we think we have, and the subsequent decision might already have been determined right from the start. so maybe there is no choice. and there is no other choice because all the others end up with me being right where i am right now, stuck and unable to move forwards.-
pardon this long, rambling post. its simply too late at night.
