The battle between your mind and your heart.

The mind can sometimes overpower the heart. Even if you desire something, or have feelings for someone, your mind can occasionally think differently. If you look closely at the interaction between your thoughts, emotions, conscience, and beliefs, it can clearly be seen that your decisions are mostly influenced by people that matter to you. Some decisions are made because you want to be in good standing with someone, and others because you don't want to hurt any feelings. Some major decisions are made because society demands them to be made. At times you may wonder, "where is the personal freedom?". One has to ask, how long can you keep your feelings, emotions, and wishes buried deep inside your heart? How long can you fool yourself, and make yourself believe that everything happens for a reason? Whenever you are alone or have the time to think about your life, your heart's desires creep into your mind, and you find yourself engulfed in a sea of grief.

Bringing the heart’s feelings and the mind’s logic on a single track is often an arduous task. You can even say it’s impossible to do that most the time. But, to make a decision, one has to feel that it is the right thing to do as well as it should make some sense. It’s always better to have a decision that is backed up by both logic and intuition. If it doesn’t feel right and only makes sense, then you need to pause and reevaluate the different aspects of it. It’s often better to make sense to whatever you feel is the right thing to do. It only takes trusting your heart a little more. But, the mind always demands proof for every heart-centered thought and you can never have a proof until you start doing something. The more you learn to trust your instincts, the clearer the little voices from inside becomes. Once you get attuned to your inner voice, the better your life will become. For that you should know that your heart is more than just a romantic vessel and it is connected to something bigger than you. 

Everybody makes mistakes. Some decisions cannot be altered or undone no matter how hard you try. But if a person doesn’t learn from his mistakes he is just going to keep making the same ones over and over.
