Choices

 


You’ve got a choice,


I often tell myself.


Would you rather get


a haircut or have a


glass of V8 Juice?



Now, I no longer


have a car, and it


is difficult if not


impossible for me


to get around very


far.



There’s a nearly


full bottle of V8


in the fridge within


reach for me. So,


having given myself


a choice, I choose


the V8 Juice. I like


V8 juice, drink a


glass of it most


every day. A haircut,


not so much. Besides,


I have given myself


haircuts for the past


40-years or so.



And nowadays, given


my lack of ability to


bend and reach, it


is very difficult for


me to do an acceptable


job insofar as the


haircut goes.



Besides, I never go


anywhere and rarely


see anyone anymore.


So who cares about


hair, what’s the use?


So, I choose the


V8 Juice, and I am


quite satisfied.



Even given my


advancing age


and narrowed


limitations, I am


still ever grateful


for choices to


be made.



Tomorrow, mountain


climbing or a nap?


Sound ridiculously silly?


We’ll just have to wait


and see. I know I


can count on V8


Juice at least


one more day.
