🔵 Fractal Persona of the Throat Chakra: The Confused Mind
Theme: Mental Fog, Self-Doubt & Disconnection from Inner Truth
🌫️ A Day in the Life of The Confused Mind
I wake up thinking of everything and nothing all at once. My thoughts rush in like a stampede—loud, scattered, unfinished. I try to speak, but the words tangle in my mouth. Sometimes they sound smart. Sometimes they sound like someone else. I wonder—do I even know what I believe?
I scroll, listen, absorb. I collect opinions like pebbles in my pocket, hoping one will anchor me. But instead, I get heavier. I ask others what they think before I ask myself. I try on their voices, but none of them fit.
Silence scares me. It makes the noise louder.
There are moments when my truth almost breaks through—like a whisper in fog. But before I can grab it, my mind pulls me somewhere else. So I stay quiet. Or I say too much. Or I change my story, hoping one version will make me feel real.
I long for clarity. But I’m lost in the static of a mind that won’t still.
