hypothetical question

Suppose I'm on the road of life and I've reached path A. Suppose also that from where I'm standing, it looks like mile marker B is near, but I can't tell because my eyesight isn't perfect. It would be an enjoyable trip to reach mile marker B, but once I've reached it, there's a good chance that there will be pain involved for 2 people who will remain unnamed and uninitialed. Logical common sense would be not to reach mile marker B. But stopping on path A, or turning off path A or turning around and running in the opposite direction would also mean pain involved for 2 people who will remain unnamed and uninitialed. So, in this supposition, who is more important, and which pain is more devastating? And where do I stop for gas? And will the person pumping the gas be mexican, chinese, or indian?

And I just had a freaky dream this morning. I wrote the above last night, and I now realize the dream might be about that. The dream was about a monster that was both good and bad, and I wished it never existed, but then I realized that if it never existed, the young and innocent son also would not exist because changing the past affects the present and the future. And the young son has a right to live and exist, so the bad guy also must exist. And now I don't know what I'm talking about. I'm late for class. I'll have to analyze my life later on. Look for a post.
