I thought about things, the pros and cons. But in the end I would be so confused, because I never believed there was ever any one right answer, yet there were many wrong ones.
The quote reflects the inner struggle of the speaker as they contemplate various decisions in life. They analyze the advantages and disadvantages of different options, but ultimately feel a sense of confusion. This confusion stems from the understanding that while there may not be a singular correct choice, there are certainly many choices that can lead to negative outcomes.
The contrast between the lack of a definitive answer and the presence of numerous wrong paths highlights the complexity of decision-making. It illustrates the often tumultuous journey of seeking clarity in a world filled with uncertainties, a theme that resonates throughout "The Joy Luck Club" by Amy Tan.
