    C. She is conflicted because she loves her life, yet longs to experience more.

    The Lady of Shalott "still delights" in her weaving, seeing only shadows of people passing by in her mirror, but at the same time she is "half sick of shadows" which shows that she is not fully content in her life. Even though she loves her weaving, she wants to experience much more.
