RE: The Indecision Trap

Did I ever mention that I love upvoting to bookmark posts?

Decision paralysis gets the best of everyone, especially when choosing between the lesser of two evils. You speak knowledge in saying that not knowing what happens after the outcome of a choice is what drives us into fear.

It will take me some time to feign off my attachments more, and hopefully peace of mind will await me. Are you taking a page from buddhism's eight fold path by any chance?

I like Buddhism as a philosophy, but I don't align with anything as a religion. I feel like religion just further segregates and manipulates people. Focusing on philosophy lets me take the ideas that I like from different religions and kind of form my own self religion in a way. :)

Ah, the philosopher route! I can kind of see what you mean... By adopting a religion, you are in a way segregating yourself from other beliefs you may better align with. To be inspired by other philosophies, but not shun the rest away.

Thank you for such a prompt reply, much appreciated c:
