Making Decisions

We spend more time deciding which brand of tissue paper to get than on things that affect our carrer. Yet, after we have agonized over the 5 or so choices of size, brand, and color, we buy something and then don’t think about it again. We don’t put the decision and regret it for a while when w go home. Ive narrowed a bit, by only buying white. An ecologically aware girlfriend once gave me a look that could have shriveled me like a prune when I bought colored paper. It’s always stuck with me. Why would I remember that and forget important things. Once I’ve left the store, I don’t think about it again. Making a decision and accepting the outcome frees us. Not making a decision puts us in bondage to it. When I went shopping or have my grocery I usually grabbed the first package I saw. It turned out to beone-ply instead of the two ply kind of tissue paper. I’ve apparently alway bought. After all, two is always better than one, isn’t it. I didn’t like it. But I swear that’s the only time I’ve ever given much thought to toilet paper.
