Sometimes it is worth more to have it a little easier. But I'd have to decide on each situation at the time. Much depends on my mood and my pocketbook at the time.Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2470879226303295078.post-57631943684106083342008-11-14T21:21:00.000+08:002008-11-14T21:21:00.000+08:00I'd have to say that I'm more of an in-between per...I'd have to say that I'm more of an in-between person. I generally opt for efficiency - at times, that tends to drive others batty. And I can't be efficient, I'd probably then opt for convenience over practicality.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2470879226303295078.post-92095514201602882842008-11-14T19:43:00.000+08:002008-11-14T19:43:00.000+08:00hmmmm...with the cost of living these days practic...hmmmm...with the cost of living these days practicality would seem the better choice. You would save $3.00 a day riding the more crowded smoke filled train. But in the long run, would the smoke be healthy for your physical well being. I know it would give me a headache and I would not want my clothes to smell for the rest of the day. Convenience would not be the reason I would pick the faster train, but to me it would be wiser for my health...especially since I have a heart condition.Shannon Jacobyanskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07285508333520716949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2470879226303295078.post-74131395580762261992008-11-14T16:39:00.000+08:002008-11-14T16:39:00.000+08:00As a dog I tend to go for convenience - I agree wi...As a dog I tend to go for convenience - I agree with garbobagahe's post. My mum, however, goes for convenience in most instances until it comes to food. Mum doesn't 'do' the convenience foods that much, because mum likes to know what she's eating so she likes to cook stuff from fresh. She wonders if life is getting too convenient, sometimes, and that we might be losing a certain quality of life in the process.<BR/><BR/>PS: I preferred the old look of your blog, found this one not so easy to navigate for some reason.

In fact, oftentimes they are in conflict. But it depends on the situation and the social status of a person. But if I were to choose, I'd rather go for convenience. I belive that things around us were invented and improved to make life more convenient.GARBOBAGAHE.COMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08725440662209086546noreply@blogger.com
