"If you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is a compromise."

Either it leads to compromise or for some depression... si?
It's a good thinky quote. It reminds me of the root of all sociological discussion: Do actors (people) really have complete agency (freedom), or is it all merely an illusion of freedom set and bound by structure (media, social norm, law, government, religion, et al.)?
I think we have to really REALLY stretch to be able to allow ourselves choices that aren't some sort of compromise on some level.
maybe that's why I tend to be cranky! lol!
Given half a chance it's not what we cannot do that scares us, it is indeed what we COULD do that frightens the living daylights out of us
so it's all round plain easier to compromise
(only it never is...not really.....)
