Flexibility

Being quite confused should not be that bad. We do not live in a complete, closed and bounded system of anything. So not all the relations, be it social or scientific, are deterministic. Therefore we change our minds, our theories day by day, year by year... 

If you are socially challenged and an obsessive perfectionist like me then you are in the unlucky crowd. We will try to swim across the current, criticize ourselves,  and make life harder and harder. Since we try to make no mistakes, we expect other people to be perfect and cannot tolerate any faulty behavior or one conflict could be enough to press the delete button in the friends' list-in real life I mean- But then, years pass and those things that matter do not matter that much and you carry the burden of the hearts you have broken. So being quite confused is not that bad at all, having a strong opinion and not taking any prisoners is way too much worse... 

After all, those strong opinions we think which never will change vanish with the new information forever and if we are lucky we do not form other strong opinions, or at least we do not make them ours. After all,they are not ours, they are just forms based on some facts which are presented to us in a given time in a given way..

So I am confused, and I guess I will stay confused. Am I choosing the hardest way again in order to make life easier? I do not know. It feels so insecure not to have unchanging, absolute truths. One can feel deeply insecure and vulnerable, without the strong opinions and without the ability to judge others according to those strong opinions... But eventually, I think, it will be the least harmful way for all of us...

Therefore I will remain confused, and maybe have a less strong opinion about confusion's being good, real good.

About the photo: A friend of mine posted another photo by these two artists sometime ago.  They did a marvelous series with a star and a moon which can be found here.
