Weary of Indecisiveness
Indecisiveness gets you nowhere.
Can you help it?
Yes and No.
Can I help it?
er... No?
What are the chances of a double-decker bus toppling over when it turns?
I've thought about this when I see a double decker making a sharp turn. Inevitably, the bus DOES sway a wee bit more than it should. Or, more than I think it should. Or... more than what seems to be safe???
The safety precautions are "no more than maximum no. of passengers" on the upper deck and "no standing on steps". I suppose the top shouldn't be heavier than the bottom.
What if everyone goes to the top but nobody sits on the lower deck???
What if all the fat people have decided to sit on the upper deck and the total weight on top ends up being heavier than the bottom?
What if the bus makes a turn and the exact same moment, a car hits it on its side?
I may SEEM like a paranoid but what may seem to be may not always be the case. I'm actually an optimist (for having thought about all the possible worst-case scenarios and be happy with what actually happens). Heh.
Fine. I am delusional (I bet Gdine's rolling her eyes at this).
No matter. I'd hop on the bus anyhow.
If the bus topples, so be it.
Thank God it's never happened.
Guess I'll merrily hop on without my what-ifs. That's definitely gonna make my insides less bumpy, my ride more pleasant, the destination my only concern.
Life is full of nuance. Over over-thinking complicates things. Yes. Over over-thinking. I don't believe in black and white concerning certain things. It's like finding your way through a thick fog. There's always possibility of Danger lurking in all directions. Being rooted to the same spot does not bring you to a clearing. One step at a time. Let God be the guide.
Yes, I need a little shake.
Milkshake.
Make that chocolate please.
