It's the heart that decide on who's to love but it's the mind who decide on what to do. Sometimes, conflicts comes between this statements. How can we get rid of this???????? Do we just need to fall on what our mind's saying or we have to listen to our heart??????

Mind is always powerful than the heart, that is why God put it at the top to think all the things that come in our life. This means that you should always consider your mind first before anything else.

Our minds possess great powers and so does our heart. we should not belittle our hearts because when we are in a trial, it is most especially our hearts that keep us very strong to endure everything and still stand up and say we are healing. Our minds help us through a lot of things but when it comes to matters of great importance, our strong hearts always keep us grounded, and well balanced and sane. Our hearts know our destiny... as much as our minds know how to help us get to that...

For me, sometimes it works for the same reason. to love one person. Especially if my mind and heart is not torn on choosing.. it can really be telling you to love and just love this person who you are with. it would differ espcieally if you are in a very unhealthy relationship and that you are not given priority or you are not loved by the person you are loving.. that makes the difference.

What the heart feels..the mind conceive. It is our feelings that dictates the mind. We feel the pain and it registers in our mind. We cannot fight emotions, but we can control our mind easily....

It depends upon the situtation where we are into.

When faced with a decision, it sure is difficult to choose which is right and which is wrong. The mind says do this but the heart feels otherwise. Some find it rather easy to follow what the mind tells them but I for one being an emotional kind of person always trusts my instincts and what my heart feels. We may tend to make mistakes but who doesn't? We may lose in the end because we chose the heart over the mind but who cares when one is in love? Do we have to justify every decision made in a relationship? I don't think so. There may be regrets later on but that is what love is.

WE always fall into this two parts of our important decision maker in terms of love, most of the time we use our heart to whom we love and fall into feelings on what we do. IN this we always fall into wrong decision 'if' we are in a wrong time of love. Like a song ' we have the right love at a wrong time ' this is my favorite song. How i wish that i am at the right time with a right man. Now i am agree with you friend that a heart decide to whom and mind what to do..

Hi, Our mind always tells us the best thing to do based upon facts and figures while the heart always highlights the right path. That's why people say that a good heart is better than all the heads in the world. Whenever we are faced with a conflict our mind can come up with logical reasons why we should act as it advises but if we listen and trust our heart, however irrational it may seem - it is usually right and we are happier as a result.

Feelings are the worst indicator of truth, but i would definitely take both my head and heart into consideration. You can listen to both but you have to be careful. The brain thinks logicly, the heart thinks emotionaly. Emotions can cause you to make decisions you know are bad. Ex, staying with the bf that mistreats you, saying something mean to someone because your upset, etc. You can listen to your heart but you have to let your brain be the final say so. Your heart is more than your body's most important organ—it's also the essence of your spiritual and emotional being.
