Wonderful memories, Mark. I would pick the top branches and my yellow lab would pick the lower ones. lol. We'd be purple and happy.

Okay, so you all may know this already, but I just found peace in realizing that sometimes things aren't perfect, but good enough will have to do. I have a hard time making decisions. A VERY hard time. In trivial things, less trivial things, important things, and if things are life changing, I am brought to a complete stupor. I am a pro at arguing both sides and it can go on forever. So in my case, if the scales are tipped 70-30, then I will have to trust that I won't get the perfect answer, and this one will have to do.

It sounds ridiculous as I'm typing it but it really feels like a major revelation and relief. Can anyone relate?

Absolutely!

Have a good day no matter what!

Melki-I can very much relate. Perfectionism is still something I am still working on too. I can relate to the paralysis of inaction at times, as well as the intense guilt. Sometimes the only option is letting go and making a decision. or realizing things aren't going to be perfect and that it's okay. Still it's really tough to get away from those thoughts at times. I've found physical activity (or playing music-although I haven't played in years) to be very helpful.
