What We Really Want

How do we know what we really want? I don't think I will ever know. The more choices I have, the more unsatisfied I feel with life. The more options I find, the worse I feel about my final choice. Will I ever be satisfied if I always have something else to choose? The truth is, the more choice we have, the less satisfied we are. I remember watching TV when I was younger and not being able to decide between two of my favorite channels on local TV. We only had about 15 channels, and yet, I felt completely satisfied deciding between my two favorite options. Now I find myself flipping through hundreds of channels and never feeling satisfied because I could have watched that, or maybe this would be better. The more I think, the less I enjoy life. I have found that the best thing I can do is just choose and move on. Choose and enjoy. No more what if's or maybe that. Just this. My choice.
