Hey William,
Good point — human beings are meaning-making machines.
If you are experiencing a conflict between your brain and your heart perhaps, what is in your life that you need to clear up? I would presume there is something there. We tend you have conflicting beliefs in life which cause anxiety and aimlessness. Generally, in my experience and research I've done, it's because something needs to be cleared up.
Hope this helps,
