Decisions

Is decision making really a need or is it just an ego pleasing activity which we all undertake to appease our inner hungry devils?

Every decision we make is someway or the other based on what we know today. Even when you consider the options as to what might happen in future, in terms of timelines it is still based on present- be it in terms of emotions, gut instincts or logical analogy. 

The problem is not that you base your decisions on your present. Because there is no other way as of now..unless we learn to travel through time dimension. The problem is that you need to discount the facts and your feelings. All decisions we make are either based on facts or emotions or people. But how do you add the essence of validity to your decision making. Moreover because everything changes... be it emotions or facts or people. Even the facts change as time passes by. Time keeps on adding different hues to our memories. So as the clock is ticking away there is absolutely nothing which is remaining the same. 

Infact when you choose a life partner you make your decision based on who he is today, what he dreams of today, without considering the fact that everything is subject to change! Change is inevitable. Everything you know today is subject to change. So would you rethink your decision when your life partner some day chooses to change.. or are you liable to live the same way all your life just becoz that is how your partner knew you at the time of committing?

That would be an insane idea.

So how do you trust your decisions?
