The wrong answer will make you feel like you've lost everything, just considering it.

[ex_athenaie]

I don't feel that for either. Just butterflies.

[lady_alizarin]

If you don't feel strongly about the answer then maybe it isn't time to give it at all.

[ex_athenaie]

He'll think I'm saying no.

[of_coins]

That depends on how big the prize is.

[ex_athenaie]

I don't know. I can't see a prize.

[of_coins]

Then why bother at all?

[ex_athenaie]

He asked. I have to answer.

[smokingrockstar]

It's the one that ain't wrong.

[ex_athenaie]

But how can you tell?

[smokingrockstar]

Gut feeling, instinct, whatever you call it.

[ex_athenaie]

I don't think I have that.

[immortalizes]

There's no such thing as right and wrong. There just is an answer among many that you pick. It's your answer.

[ex_athenaie]

But if I regret it later, that makes it wrong.

[immortalizes]

No, it means you made a choice. You should be thankful to have that freedom.

[ex_athenaie]

But I won't be free, if I pick the wrong answer.

[sootily]

Would you like the 'proper' answer? Or the correct one?

[ex_athenaie]

The correct one. The one that won't hurt later.

[sootily]

Oh, all things hurt, my dear. One could say that is the very truth of living. The rich man may lavish in luxury but live a hollow life, while the poor man toils away his days in order to earn the sweat of his brow. But if it's the correct one you're after--

Think not with your head, but your heart. If you believe in what it tells you, you cannot go wrong.

[ex_athenaie]

What if it's telling me it doesn't know?
