Confuse-you's

How do you know what's best for you?
Is it better to settle on what's only good for you?

It's a constant battle between gut-feel and paranoia. It's hard to decide on what you should do and have in life.

I had a little conversation with friends some days ago. As the "grown ups" that we are, we talked about our jobs. The other feels contented on the laid back atmosphere of his job, where he can freely do whatever he wants on certain days. The other, feels contented on what she's experiencing at her current workplace as well. As she puts it, it's a great balance of work and play. Both seemed content and happy on where they are, but admits that there will be a time that all the happiness and contentment will fade too.

I agree. Life isn't always about apples. Life can be about lemons too. Or life can be about red, shiny apples on the outside, but bland and dry on the inside. Life can be about lemons, but given the right mixture becomes sweet and refreshing.

I think a huge part of these still goes on the person's wants and needs. Some people finds stress and challenges an ideal situation, while others prefer to have time on their hands. Some would want to be somewhere in between. Someone like me.

Life has a lot to offer. All we have to do is choose. It's the deciding part that's hard. Especially when you don't know what or who gives you happiness and contentment.

And that's me. Confused as always.
