Apparently, replaced.

Always consider before acting.

Just like using honey flavoured syrup instead of homemade maple syrup, or playing soccer with a beachball instead of a proper football, not all replacements are of equal quality. At the point of desperateness, we turn to alternatives that seem just as good. Often, we end up in regret.

However, also at the point of despondence, we are constantly unaware of our other options, our other alternatives. Oblivious to everything else, only focusing on solution. Without considering them, we choose the worst, the easiest way out.

We constantly forget, though, how nothing or no one likes to be replaced, especially by something or someone worse.
