Life’s all about choices.
Take diet: instead of the full fat burger, choose the veggie burger. Instead of wine, water. Instead of chocolate, carrot and dip. Everything in moderation.
Take exercise: instead of sitting in front of the television, choose getting out for a walk or a run.
Take politics: instead of supporting the rich tax avoiders, choose supporting those in need. Instead of voting for the hate-filled right or left extremes, choose a moderate, balanced approach.
Take the pandemic: instead of complaining, choose to wear a mask and stay home.
Life’s all about choices, but it’s also about respecting other people’s choices.
Which is why I choose to avoid most people. Especially those health-obsessed, vegan-munching, facemask wearing, commie freaks.
I’d rather sit in my basement and wait until it’s time for the right choices to be enforced. Bunker down. Our time will come again.
