2010 left off with a comment from Margery and it took me all this while to get it copied over to my Post. It seems that blogger sometimes allows comments and under some other mysterieous circumstances does not. So I suggested to her that if her comments were not getting through to email me at
richard.charles.degeiso@gmail.com Then it took me a century to copy from my gmail account to the comment section on the blog... but the devil would not paste in the comments section... soooo finally I pasted it on my next Post and here we are. And Margery wrote...
Sometimes a choice leads to another choice. If I come to a fork in a road and choose left, but find it to be other than what I expected I can chose the next two or three lefts and return to my starting point, albeit later in time. Else, it may lead me to more interesting adventures, as fate would have it. If I add too much garlic to the pot, I can add more chicken and make leftovers. I don’t see choice as an end, but rather a beginning. But I guess, then that’s where attitude enters the equation. Does that mean my experience has taught me there is no wrong choice? I’ve always said, make a decision and stick to it.
Well Margery.. if we were in the city, we could probably say that since the streets are laid out at right angles to each other mostly and taking a continuous left turn for example would lead one right back to where they started.. that is like the movie "Groundhog Day. But like every country gal or boy knows the forks in the road are more like the letter Y and that would make it impossible to go back in time as you suggest in your comment. Unfortunately the arrow of time in our reality always points to the future.
But I have to applaud your thoughts and perhaps some day if we ever get a chance to visit I can savor your most delicious chicken stew. You are right of course, choice is a beginning and true freedom is our everlasting right to make a choice. Experience tells us whether or not the choice was a good one so that when we come to another fork that looks like it might be similar(not necessarily the same) then we whould have a better chance of it coming out in our favor.
Let's hear it folks. If you can't leave a comment then give me a holler at richard.charles.degeiso@gmail.com
