Indecision can be a killer...I have always been a romantic, leaning more on my emotions than necessary, especially when it comes to women. In other matters, usually I rely on common sense or experience. Living in China I realize that there is a major difference in the way Chinese people think vs. western people.
So how to decide what to do with your life? Do you listen to your heart or your head? Even if one knows what they want to do, how much do we let our emotions sway our decisions? I heard the comment yesterday from a Chinese woman..."when we were dating my boyfriend wasn't romantic, I just thought that is how it is." Now they are married and have a child.
Being a westerner I CANNOT IMAGINE living that way, without emotion. Perhaps I am missing something...is a marriage like a business deal? Would it work better? Hmmm, mebbe so, as I have been married three times, and each time I allowed emotion to govern my decisions. Maybe I should be more concerned about how she will enhance my future, be helpful or a hindrance, perspective is key. Time for change?
