An intro paragraph: Some family news first… Last Saturday, my husband and I just celebrated our 22nd anniversary! 💞After a morning yoga class outside (just me,) we went jet skiing. We haven’t done that in years and last time, it was with the kids. Always so much fun as it became a great idea. The waves were very rough 🌊as my backside hurt for a few days… 😬Double twos, kind of similar to my title today but that’s in a bit. Tonight, my son will be staying a week with his cousin during band camp as his apartment won’t be available until the following week. This will be quite the new experience for him but he gets a head start before his third year of college begins. I’m a little nervous but need to trust all will be well. Tomorrow brings child number two who is starting her first year at college soon. Moving day is finally here as this summer went so amazingly fast. There goes my mama heart again. 🥹😫I obviously can’t choose between both kids~~ ha ha, but that does lead into today’s topic for sure.
Ultimate Warrior’s epic win at WMVI allowed him briefly to hold both the IC title and the Championship one at the same time~ see pic ⬇️. Obviously, WWF then was building the company around him as their new champ, so the IC belt had to be relinquished. Here’s a question to wrestlers of that Golden Era but maybe others as well. This pertains back to when there were only those two belts. Which would they choose?
No strings attached, no complications, no better for business deals, etc. None of that here~~~just a choice. I bet most would pick being the best or getting that elusive Championship title. Maybe some wouldn’t as they always felt more Intercontinental material but just imagine if they COULD choose. Once all the variables are eliminated, would their answer be the same? Maybe also they wouldn’t want their face everywhere or the brutal touring schedule, expectations, and all that required for being *THE* champ. Interesting question I’d love to post to any of them. Fans going to meet and greets, autograph signings, or any wrestling event out there~~~keep this in mind.
With Libra season approaching after my Virgo, it’s the balancing scale. It’s all about fairness, justice, and keeping things aligned. We all want that though, right? We do and yet there’s this tug-of-war always going on to pull or push from both sides of a choice. We put those labels on of good/ bad/right/wrong or even in wrestling~ face/heel. There are always choices everyday of that Yin/Yang Warrior had mentioned. I wear my bracelet every Wednesday when writing… ☺️We make decisions based on multiple factors, but lots are connected with either A or B, 1 or 2. “Which Warrior Would You Choose?” was another post many years back where I posed that same question. I was imagining metaphorically Ultimate Warrior and Warrior himself years later in lines waiting for fans. Younger generations probably found that confusing seeing his past look with his current one. 😳Hard to choose just one but he really was both. Great post to read if you’re interested…
How about those social quizzes? You might see some often where there are different photos of many choices and you can only pick one? I hate those as they are difficult for me. 😐Some I am better at than others like Taco Bell being my fast food place 🌮but others, not so much. I clearly have my fave in wrestling but that’s for other reasons as well. 😉Is it easy or hard for you to make those types of decisions? My daughter takes forever deciding between two choices of let’s say~~ an outfit to buy, necklaces to wear, or even when younger with toys. It can be anything really. Adults have more life decisions to ponder and for some, it’s gut wrenching. From a job choice, to buying a car, home, or even debating on a relationship. With friendships, it can even come down to keeping someone or letting them go for whatever reason. Romance can be tricky too. Any “Bachelor/Bachelorette” fans out there? I used to watch years ago but not anymore. Who gets that final rose when it’s down to two people? 🌹I know most of those reality shows rarely work but still, we are glued to our seats hoping our pic wins.
Parenting is a whole other concept. What happens when two kids have an event on the same day or night? Yes, we have had that happen a few times. Do you both go and then leave early to make it to the other or split up where one attends for one child, and the other goes with child number two? Choosing between both can be tough and yet despite outcomes, we make it work somehow. I will say though last year~ we chose our girl if anything interfered with her brother. No way was Mama missing any senior stuff and I did it for his milestone year too. With her not continuing in band for college, it was an easy choice for us parents come football season but was debatable early on. We will still cheer for both teams but will sit on the side of our guy in the band he so loves.
Do you have to choose between two more often than you’d like? Well, it all depends on what the choices are for sure. You will have your list but the biggies will require more effort on your part to decide. Whatever you choose, I hope it works for you but if not, you will always get more choices in other ways. Sometimes, we fall away from what we used to love and move onto other areas. That’s OK because we do need to evolve in life. We may also always have our “likes” so the choice becomes easy. It’s yours to pick so hold that belt(s) up high and celebrate (if it’s a good win obviously…) Yes, I know UW held up both!!
P.S. My son’s friend attended SummerSlam in Cleveland a few weeks ago! He’s been a fan since a young boy. I still want to ask more details. He had a blast though!
P.P.S. We DO get a 3️⃣ count! Two belts with UW, two choices (like my kids,) and our 22nd anniversary~~~sorta.
