Perhaps that is true.
I think that our lived experience is this huge un-edited mass of conflicting information. We can't possibly sort through all of it. And everything is a complex mix of so many different elements with connections to other things. So several things can seem right to us even though they are not the same. I see my life as a dance: move this way, oops move that way, ok move over here, hmm what about over there. There IS often a conflict between the mind and it's reason and logic and the heart with its intuitions. The problem with the mind is that it is really good at evaluating lots of stuff but it is the heart which is meant to tell us what is worth doing. I say trust your heart. But always expect any choice to need to be modified and changed - sooner or later!
