Habitual choices are choices too

In what was undoubtedly the largest accidental social experiment ever conceived, millions of people got the chance to experience life without their favorite social media platform yesterday.

And, you know what? Every one of them was perfectly fine. Many of them in fact discovered they were significantly happier because of it.

Sure. Many would rather scroll through scarcity-fueled clickbait all day than find any amount of contentment, even when given the chance to assess if doing so is actually making them happy. But it goes to show that whatever choice you've made or make, it always was and is just that--a choice.

One we can choose to embrace or abstain from, no matter what anyone else is doing.
