Heart or Mind, which one to follow?
From the first of June, 2018, I started writing Good Morning messages in the form of poems (Please read: ‘Good Morning Message #1‘).
The last such message was: ‘Good Morning Message #136‘.
Good morning Friends,
Between Heart and Mind, which one to follow?
That’s the question that often stares us in the face,
Many a time our pride we need to swallow,
Following the Heart when Mind could win the race.
It is really dependent upon the situation at hand,
No one can have a clear-cut and ready answer;
Sometimes, it doesn’t come out as planned,
One has to walk carefully like a tight rope dancer.
I often give in to the heart when I should,
Really listen to the sane advice of the mind;
Many a times I haven’t really understood,
Whether it is better to be right or to be kind.
But, then I really have no regrets in the end,
Losing in a situation to give someone a smile;
It has been important for me to win a friend,
Than have many personal triumphs to compile.
So, in this case, I can’t give you a clear advice,
You have to find for yourself the right course;
All I can say is don’t try to be too precise,
Let the mind lead and let the heart endorse.
Nobody wants to be called a heartless person,
Who always follows the dictates of the reason;
But, sometimes so that things don’t worsen,
Your Mind has to be the Flavour of the Season.
Let the Mind lead and Heart endorse.
