Options

Do you ever get overwhelmed by all of the options available to us? There are days where I think about several different jobs that I would like to try and the myriad of travel destinations. It is hard sometimes to focus on what is before me because of all of the distracting possibilities. I had a friend who said she cried in the grocery store when she came back from living several years in a primitive village--there were too many choices in the grocery aisle. Another friend of mine said she would have breakdowns going to the grocery store when she first moved to the US from Russia. It is exciting to be living in a place where there are so many possibilities & choices, but sometimes it can be downright overwhelming. Have you ever looked at all the number of different toilet paper brands available at the grocery store? Who would have thought?
