Ambivalence

having mixed feelings; contradictory ideas about something or someone; doubt; hesitancy; unsureness; uncertainty

I also want to clarify that it took me awhile to come to the conclusion of my current opinions as a taxidermist.mostly because of judgment by peers. And I didn’t precipitate in some not good things. changing is hard but it’s worth it and not impossible
