HA! Your cookie aisle example cracks me up. The array of choices in big box stores probably leads some to throw their hands up in despair. A TV program told the story of a soldier returning home from the war zone. He went shopping with his wife. When he saw the cereal aisle, he cracked psychologically and returned to the war zone where decisions were made for him. Maybe we housewives get used to this bounty of brands, narrowing our choices down to a few family favorites. Sometimes it gets monotonous, but it makes it easier to live. Then, there's a day when the choice is between two favorites. Which one? Oh hell! Buy both.
That's a very interesting thing you say. In fact, one of the never-ending struggles of human beings is to have more freedom, however, the more freedom we have, the more exhausting it is to have to choose. That's the price of freedom, having to choose, which can be a complete hell.
That's funny, the more options there are, the less we worry about comparing those options, because if you do, it's overwhelming in the end.
An interesting contrast, with the day there were no news.
