Description
The challenge for today on Flickr is Maximalism, and I used a photo of one of my bookshelves Here
Above represents how too much choice can make me feel...dizzy and disoriented !
We are incredibly lucky in developed countries: for example in Britain we shower in drinking water, and yet some folk still buy bottled water with no thought to the environment. Meanwhile children in some countries walk miles to get a container of often polluted water to carry home.

You are right, Andrea. I often think how lucky we are. Also when I dive into my warm bed in the evening. I always say loud. "Thank you for my bed, I wish everybody had such a bed like mine" Yes I get dizzy just looking at your photo :D
So true Andrea. Superb capture Andrea. God bless.
walking down aisles and aisles of stuff, mostly ones we can do without....
So very true Andrea.
Never realized there was so many choices in the oil and vinegar section.
There is so much we take for granted without realizing it until it is pointed out to us.
Wonderful collection of books on your shelves and intricately lined up in the open tv. area.
You are so clever and creative Andrea.
XxOo
Too many choices - definitely a first world problem...
Very true. I have tap water. Don't like vinegar
, great pic.
lovely
You reminded me of a scene from the 1980 movie "Moscow on the Hudson" starring Robin Williams. It tells the story of a Russian circus musician who defects in New York City. Someone sends him to the grocery store for some coffee. He finds himself in the coffee aisle, two solid rows of coffee. He ends up fainting. And with all the choice we have the store is usually out of the one thing I need.
Very true Andrea. We take so much for granted. I have to admit, I only drink bottled water - and it so cheap here. At the vending machine 25 cent/gallon. Bottled water at the commissary on base $3.29 for 24 bottles. I cook with tab water.
so very true---i hate going grocery shopping and half the time i have my list and still forget to buy what i went for the in the first place!!
