do you think you are wiser than your heart?

then think twice for heart is treacherous... are you familiar with this line? or have you known the meaning of it through your own experience?
love is something everyone wish to have.. when someone makes you feel special, spend time with you, and appreciates you for exactly who you are, aren't you flattered? aren't you feel your heart is singing? It's a good feeling but we shouldn't lose our control, we have to use our mind and see everything clearly. "Love is blind" as what many of us know but love is based on deeper levels and definitely not just depend on what we see outside or what we know only for a short period of time.
this for all those people who are blinded by love.. wake up and save yourself from heartaches. oh just my thoughts about love.. would love to hear your thoughts too.

That line should be the EXACT opposite: Feel twice, for the mind is treacherous. Love (and i mean TRUE love) can only be attained by going beyond the mind, not depending on the mind. When someone does all those things you mentiones is not the heart that is happy, is your own ego! And this ego is part of the mind, how can you love someone else if you don't first love yourself? It is absurd. First we love ourselves, and then share the joy with others.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't listen at all to what our hearts. We just need to think twice when our hearts speak and shouldn't rely solely on what it says. If we use our mind and examined what we feel in a balance way, it doesn't necessarily mean that we are only concerned about our ego and we don't love ourselves. The fact that we are carefully considering what we feel shows that we love ourselves. I understand if we have different opinion about this.

Think by brain and feel by heart, thats what i think. Combination of both in right quantities can do wonders.

Yes & No. They're smart in two different ways. Basically, now is everything to the heart. The brain knows ways that things are not right now, and knows why (because either things have changed or things will change again.)
But the heart doesn't care how things were or will be.

No, your heart knows what you really want. Your heart knows what will make you happy. Your heart might be wrong in choosing these things but then if you don't follow it and give it a shot, you'll have regrets on yourself. You see, its better to be wrong than to not have tried and even if you were wrong, you'll have advancement in your life, the bad exoeriences will teach you and make you who you are. Sure it will be painful, but at least it will be worth it.

I think my heart is wiser than me because it controls my whole me. I have my pieces of pains and heartache but that is okay , love is very beautiful for it is very self less. Pain and heartache is the vital part of love. Love would be less in meaning if both are absent. Good that i fall in the right man for he doesn't take advantage of my affection and of everything. He knows my heart rules me and he always respects that.

I think in life balance is crucial. And so, while it may be foolish to jump blindly into love or lust with only one's heart, I don't think you can be wholly technical and only use your mind to deconstruct love either. I think you need to trust your "heart" or emotions, your gut instinct but you also need to try and maintain clear perspective from your intellect and make sure the relationship is a healthy one full of balance, respect and that both people's needs are being met. I think it is sometimes very easy to lose oneself in a relationship. Your vision becomes clouded and you may give up your own needs or wants for the desire of another, but this isn't right. You need to make sure that both people's needs are being met and you are not in a relationship for the sake of being in one or because you are too scared to be on your own. Loneliness is not an excuse for companionship. Love is not a word to be thrown around. You really only have business being in a committed relationship when you are confident enough and whole and complete within yourself. Then, you will enter into a respectful, balanced, partnership where both people's needs are heart and met and you will find true love and subsequently happiness with that person.
