Spartacus

I know I've been watching too many dramas when I start replacing Thank Yous with,...


Gratitude.

feels like flinging my helpless body out of my window.

cant cope with the fucking mind.

Human Decision Making

Lets take a typical domestic situation that occurs daily, so innocuous you never gave it further thought to it, to illustrate my point.

You see, my family drinks alot of Yakult, so our fridge is always stocked.
Now I go to the fridge, ready to ransack its treasures, and Im faced with the choice. To Yakult, or not to Yakult. Some days I say ok, because its a healthy drink that aids digestion. Some days I reject it, because it obviously is too high on sugar content.

On a daily basis, we soothe our tortured minds with justification of said choice. On a case by case basis, it makes logical rational sense. In the long run, assuming the result of choosing to drink is 70% (for me), it means Ive not made a choice. (clearly its too sweet, cai!)

Point is, human decision-making process is fine for selection of such trivial things. But scale it up, and the repercussions are more severe.

Think about it, how many times in your life, have you gone to a sinful treat in the kitchen, and succumbed. Likewise, kept the willpower and refrained? Both times having pleased with your moral justification of lets-not-waste-food vs i-wanna-be-healthy.


human are odd, no?
Yakult time.
