Existential Crisis

I guess I'm caught in the vicious crisis of existentialism. I think I'm at one of those stages in life where one keeps mulling over small little things in your life. Not sure what drives this behavior, but I have to pat myself for this ridiculous self-observation with an eye for further research. Following things are some of the things that I have to deal with everyday.

I'm not sure
  • should I do away with my french beard, or trim it further or grow a full-fledged beard altogether? But, people never notice what I do. Sometimes, I find it racist when people say to me after a week "hey, you have taken off your french beard. when did you do this?"
  • should I eat "atta" masala maggi or just masala maggi? My bowel movement has seen no difference in either case..
  • should I eat Oatmeal or CornFlakes for breakfast? This has been the only healthy dilemma I guess..
  • should I watch Lost, Frasier, Hustle, Chuck, Big Bang Theory or Castle today? Wait, I've watched most of them already.
  • should I watch T.V.? But there's nothing interesting on it..
  • should I continue reading the current novel I picked up or should I start over with Harry Potter/Ponniyin Selvan? Starting over with a series is always a big commitment, so I end up reading the current boring one..
  • should I switch over to Tea or stick with Coffee? Well, both of them suck at office or in the chaiwala near the office..
  • should I order Dal Kichidi or Veg Kichidi for lunch? Both cost and taste exactly the same..
  • and there are many more..
I believe that almost all decisions I make on the above has nothing to do with how it is going to shape my day. And most of you do will experience the same. However, we still mull over these things on a freakishly disturbing high-frequency. Do you have one? Share!
