Basically in each and everyone of us we have an idea of how we bring meaning to our lives whether we know it or not we define ourselves through our actions thoughts and beliefs. With that being aid imagine everything you took for granted was proven to be false or ill conceived on your part. Essentially you have to go back and evaluate what you believe to be your purpose in life and this re evaluation and realization that all you held to be dear or true creates a conflict between how you once thought and the new emerging thoughts and beliefs its an internal conflict between the past and present within an individual.
