I would like to begin with an anecdote... A woman stands in front of a bus station and thinks “should I take a bus or a cab? If I take a cab, it won’t matter. If I take a bus, there will be 2 options: either I sit or I stand. If I stand, it won’t matter. If I sit, there will be 2 options: either I sit by a boy, or I sit by a girl. If I sit by a girl, it won’t matter. If I sit by a boy, there will be 2 options: either we will fall in love, or we won’t fall in love. If we don’t fall in love, it won’t matter. If we fall in love, there will be 2 options: either we get married and have children or we don’t get married and don’t have any children. If we don’t get married, it won’t matter. If we get married and have kids, there will be 2 options: either we have a boy or we will have a girl. If we have a girl, it won’t matter. If we have a boy, there will be 2 options: either he will join the army or he will not join the army. If he doesn’t join the army, it won’t matter. If he joins the army, there will be 2 options: either he fights and die, or fights and doesn’t die. If he fights and doesn’t die, it won’t matter. If he fights and die – hmm – Shouldn’t it be better to take a cab?
