I look out into a sea of empty tables, which one to choose? There are some by the window, that’s nice. But it’s farther away from me. Some empty tables sit before me, mocking me with filth. There’s a couple sitting by some over there, but they could be too loud. They could inturrupt my dinning experience. I feel the food in my hands getting colder, desperately waiting to be eaten. If only I could decided on a table. I’m not OCD or ADD, just indecisive. What if I pick the wrong one? If I pick this one, would that one over there be better? Would I have had a better time at that one? These thoughts will filter through part of my mind, while the other side is screaming at it to shut up. IT DOESN’T MATTER, I say. But deep down I still think it does. Quickly I sit down randomly and eat my food.

Imagine you’re given $100 to spend in a mall. Great, right? Not quite. You only have $100, but what to spend it on? Fashion that none of your friends will understand, or that new ipod nano? Everytime we’re given something good, it turns evil and betrays us. You would walk down the mall, gazing at each window, deciding, is this worth it? Grace washes over you and you wonder whether you should purchase something for someone else, but the question still comes in, what? There are billions of choices in the mall? Should you purchase 400 gumballs? Or that one “big-ticket” item? What would be the best for your money? You finally find something, but can you find it cheeper somewhere else? Maybe then you could get two things. Your greed and efficiency would work evily together.
