Do You Agree?

Yesterday My husband and I were watching a movie. It was late so we watched for about half an hour. There was a scene in which the actor took the actress to meet his grandmother. Before the actress left, the grandmother told her always to listen and follow her heart. She said as long as she listens to her heart she will always be happy. We paused the movie and went to bed. I kept thinking about what she said and wondered if it was true. What do you think about it? Could it be true?

It's easy to listen to your heart,it's hard to put it in action.

Indeed Shizuka. Your name reminds me of a cartoon Doremon.

No I do not agree absolutely not..the heart is stupid and makes dumb choices..for me in my experience.

Yes, I thought about this too. I agree with you. I have experienced times when I choose to use my brain and didn't regret it at all.

I think it is partly true but we also need to listen to our intuition, sometimes the heart leads us into danger and that is when intuition might warn us not to venture there.

Yes, that is true too. I personally believe it has to be a combination, no one component is all that reliable.

I 100 percent agree with you. I also had this on my mind but those lines made me wonder if it's true. But in reality, there are times when we need to use our brains instead of listening to our hearts.

Sometimes following our listening to our heart brings unhappiness...

Yes, Kandase. That's true. It should be a balance. There are times when you need to make a choice for your own safety.

I feel it's easy to say then it's done. It's shown like that in movies. However, I try to listen to both my mind and heart to do stuff in life

Our heart or mind may not be able to take correct decision at times but in movies they do share senseless things

OMG Raj I will you. That made me rethink my life. I question if I was right but then I thought all the decision I took so far was wise and I have nothing to regret.

@Butterfingers Indeed Raj. That's true. I think you must know the movie. It's called Mann.

No, I don't believe you should always listen to your heart. It's a nice theory, and it makes for a great line in a movie, but it would be foolish to always listen to your heart, and expect to be happy. We were given a brain by God so we would use reason to also help make decisions. Emotions are volatile things, and our hearts can frequently change.

But the logic and the emotion are often the opposite side.
