Confusion makes us feel lost, perplexed, bewildered, and sometimes overwhelmed. There is always some sort of decision-making happening that lead us to a sense of being split, as if you are right in the middle of a tug of war. It is often underpinned by fear, for the decisions involved will certainly involves some degree of risk. And when we fail to see the pros of our options, we may zoom in and focus on what we have to forgo in each scenario. It could be very unsettling that makes us ungrounded and off-centred.
But are these feelings derived more from the connotation of the word? Or are we observing our "confusion' with curiosity and letting it guide us to what this will lead to? The prefix "con" has its Latin root which means "with or together", and "confusion" is "the process of joining two or more things to from a single entity". So next time when you feel confused, how about pretending to be an alchemist and watch the mundane ordeals transmuted into great opportunities in life?
