HEART OR BRAIN

We all go through this phase when we wonder whether we should use our brain or should we simply follow the diktats of our heart!!!! The argument on what's better is never gonna end.....for some people using their brain works better.....yes, they don't get emotionally involved with anything.....be it their work, people, relationships, the sofa in the living room, the wallet your boyfriend gifted you (at the end of the day its just a damn wallet and all you keep in it is money rite!!!!) the bed you sleep on everyday, the trees in the garden......i could go on.....and in a way its good because then its easier to move ahead in life. Its easy to give up when its tough to hold on and if at all you break them or they are taken away from you then its easy for you to move away from them.....
And what happens if you think from your heart???? you follow your heart, the brain keeps saying let it go but the heart wont just let it go......I don't know about others but i've always followed my heart but along with it i've also learnt to take responsibility for my actions! I hate thinking by my head when it comes to people i love.....my head says don't call my best friend because she hasn't called you in a week but my heart wants to speak to her, ask her why hasn't she called me?
I quit a huge corporate firm because my heart wasn't at peace there, everyone said that i was committing "professional hara kiri!" by joining a much lesser known but it's this lesser known firm that gave me name, fame and money......and moreover let me discover the writer in me......
So if you listen to your head and keep telling yourself that listening to your heart is impractical and won't help you in the long run then for a change try listening to your heart and you will realise that in the process of killing your heart's desires for a non-existent tomorrow you are ruining your today!!!!

if one says only brains or only heart than its a total lost cause going towards a mental breakdown. I believe that both the heart and the brains need eachother and when they are in sync alls well. The brain does do the logical part but brain alone is inhuman whereas the heart does its all emotional fundas but alone its just another heart break away. the heart needs the brains to give it that confidance and assurance that it decides the right thing ... just as the brain needs the heart to add just the right amount of human touch. this is whats called the conscience ...
