The Struggle Within

When I write, I struggle with deciding which of these two sentences to use:

  • I'm always late to the party when it comes to music.
  • When it comes to music, I'm always late to the party.

I can justify either structure. I wish I had a macro that would identify sentences like the first sentence in one color in a Word file and sentences like the second sentence in a different color. I wouldn't know how to approach writing a macro like that as there's nothing to "find" as far as I can figure out. Writing style is just that: a style. Sometimes, the first sentence strikes me as being appropriate and sometimes, the second sentence strikes me as being appropriate. I know I can't code that in a macro!
