Choice or No Choice

I went home late last night coming from a long and doggone Friday. Sure, I did finish early but I chose to not go home yet and sleep. Sure, I grabbed a couple of beers first before I went. Deep inside me thinks, "you know, I could've rested and slept early, but you chose not too. You knew you'd have an early the following day but you didn't care. Instead you wasted some time and precious sleep hours."

I didn't mind. There wasn't supposed to be work today anyway but because I'm practically a slave of this ungrateful advertising industry I have no choice.

Amid the NO CHOICES that abound me everyday, I feel proud and dignified to say that last night, i had a choice, whether it was good or bad, at least i had a choice. and i'm happy just the same.

Yes! As Kris Aquino would've exclaimed "deal or no deal", for me it's choice or no choice. I celebrate those days and moments where choice and options figure in my life. I will not complain.

Afterall, the UN measures the country's development via presence and availability of choices. The country that has less choices would be considered less developed and the country with more choices, more developed. In essence, gross happiness incidence is the ultimate desire of any natonal government. And gross happiness is the only way to go.

If I were to undergo a litmus test now, my company would fail miserably now. Tsk. My happiness has just dropped to an all time low,

damn.

choices. choices. maybe it's about time i consider the "other options"..


maybe.
