IE

Nah...I'm not starting off about the Internet Explorer & the difference it has made in the modern world & our lives.

I'm referring to the Intellect vs Emotion battle that consists of the human make up. Every person is generally inclined more towards one of these. That's how we are categorized in the Practical /Heartful people.

When I think about it, I'm generally stuck at this point,
In the matters of the mind over heart, what should one go for?

I'm a regular at this dilemma. :O There are times when I know something is correct in the mind, yet somehow heart does not agree for it... & if my heart says so, I trust it to be right!!
...Maybe becoz it may be Correct for me, but wrong in general...
..& then there are times when the heart just pushes you to do something, though the mind has other opinions.

What does one do then? What is the correct way to go? Many would answer that it is always good & correct to listen to the mind, as it can give reasons for anything. But, what about the heart? Just because it doesn't give reasons..except feelings...should it be ignored?

Heart does give false alarms too...for which we face the repercussions later..but that's another story.

Ideally it would be best if we attain a balance. Sure its not an impossible task to find it, But its not an overnight job... & overnight replies to such questions would be so good!!
Here too, notice how the heart and mind differ on coming to a common agreement? Mind knows its not possible to find overnight replies..& the heart wants just that!

Ah...! but when were questions & answers about life that easy...?
