20 May 2010: TravelPeople - the best choice

Choice is a wonderful thing unless you have trouble choosing. And here I'm not talking about someone like my husband who, as a Gemini, finds it difficult to sometimes not change his mind about things, but about having so many different choices that it complicates your life. Yes, choice is liberating, but having too many choices can be confusing! Life was so much simpler in our grandparents' day when you had a choice between buying a black car (probably a Ford) or buying a white one (probably a Ford); or deciding whether you wanted just butter, just jam or both on your sandwich. If you want to see just how confusing choice can be today, all you have to do is send a five year old into a shop and tell him he can choose any one sweet he likes ... It is human nature to want it all! No wonder we feel more discontent with life than our grandparents used to feel - the more choices we have, the bigger the sacrifice if we can only have one! Or am I totally confused now? On http://www.travelpeople.co.za/ it is possible to have it all - you'll be spoilt for choice this week!
