If you must eat the cookie, then you must.
You can ask me whether I think you should, or not, but I’ll tell you that what I think doesn’t matter.
What I think doesn’t change the fact that you feel you must.
Where I come in is with questions:
- Why do you feel you must?
- Is the cookie really what you want?
- If you weren’t happy with your decision this time, then how can you improve that decision next time?
But yes, for right now, if you must, then there’s no judgement.
You must.
