    For multiple choices use 'among' . For a choice between two objects use  'between'

    'be/bi' means  'two/2'.

    If there are two alternatives, the preposition is "between". 

    If there are more than two, the preposition is "among".

    I cannot choose from among the colors red, blue, yellow, and green as they all look good to me

    I cannot choose from among the colors red, blue, yellow, and green, as they all seem equally appealing.
