WHAT WOULD YOU DO ?

Do you think with your heart or your head?

Interesting question, huh?

And difficult to decide which is the better organ to make your decision with for the best outcome in the long run.

The head has a tendency to be sensible, think logically and listen to what those in “ authority “ have to say, taking it as gospel that it’s the right thing to do .

The heart, soppy old thing that it is, is far more likely to be reckless make choices that might not be seen as the right ones by those set in their ways but that may ultimately be for the best if given the chance to indulge.

So do you go with the sensible option because those who are experts in it must be right that that’s the only way?

Or go with the feeling inside that says something else is worth trying no matter what cost to you because ultimately it would make you happier because at least you tried everything.

Put in a situation where you have to decide with either heart or head, in the heat of the moment, do you know what you would you do?
