This Or That...Given Two Options, Which Would You Choose?

Some might say that having an option is often an illusion. The world seems to be full of choices, but are all of those options really available to you? There are a lot of car choices, but can afford to buy any car you choose?

There are thousands of potential colleges to attend, but will they accept you? With billions of people in the world, we still sometimes do not get the one we want. Choices have limitations. Even with the brains, money, looks, and charm, you cannot have it all. 

Life might be simpler with fewer choices. Perhaps lead to less disappointment? If you only had two choices what would you pick? Trust me, I keep it real simple.

The answers to most of the options are very clear to me. Others were honestly a toss-up. Even though I made the list, some are tougher to choose between than others. I want both. I want it all. I love a hot guy, with a kind heart, who is smart, funny, and makes me laugh. Don't we all deserve that? What would you choose?
