Emotionality - Difficult times being the King



I think that as we get older we have to make difficult decisions about our future that do have real consequences. Just last week, I decided to eat a different dish than the one I wanted at a restaurant because someone else was going to order the bacon burger. I immediately had food envy of what I could have chosen for myself.

These choices had real consequences. I couldn't make it bacon simply because I didn't want to seem like a copy-cat (clearly a juvenile decision ingrained in my food choices).

I remember having to pick a different shoe other than the rest of DLDL so that I would not get caught wearing the same shoe at the same time. I would not have wanted to fight in the resulting cat free for all when people deliberately copy others peoples shit. The consequences are real.

So now at 25, I am unsure if I want to go the same route as others or pave my own way. I really don't want to end up with the chicken bbq burger, i mean, its "ok and all" but, I dont know. I think I know what I want to do - maybe.

There is a reason I put Sagat up here btw, not just the King reference.
