Thinking with the heart is a noble idea. But it should not be done exclusively. I support the idea of bf balancing. The reality is that we need to follow our dreams, aspirations & those other things that make us happy. But we also have to eat & pay rent. I believe our hearts point for us the direction wherein we should walk. Our minds on their part show us the best way to make every step. Relying on any one of them & disregarding the other is equally detrimental in my view. They are interdependent. Your heart may tell you to go to africa & help people there, your mind then calculates how you will acquire the means to get there, and safely.

Nice -what did you say- I think that every person needs to find his own way to be happy and never look behind and ask them self question about it if they know it make’s them happy.

OMG, this may go over your head but, i think it needs to be said. ok, here i go. If you believe that God created Adam and Eve then you know that it is not good for man to be alone. Women were created for Men and Man was created for Woman. And what they create together is to be used to Glorify God. Now you know that two men can not create a baby together and two women can not create a baby together. I too have found myself alone for the past couple of years. Sometime I’m happy and sometimes I’m sad.But I truly believe that it is not good to spend all of your life wondering and wishes your life away. Somebody is going to be the giver and somebody is going to be the taker. I’ve had my share of takers like I know we all have. Don’t let the one that hurt you control your life. Cause the more you withdraw from relationships the more she or he is controlling you life. Reach down in your soul and find the answers not your heart. When you die you heart stops beating. But, your soul can be passed on to someone through just being in the present of a cherished love one. Nobody is perfect and if you’re looking for perfection you will be alone until you die. And then and only then will you see what true perfection looks like!!!!!!!

Bas: Thanks man. If you can’t be happy by your own, why would you be with somebody else? From my experience only giving makes you happy, not taking. Just my experience.

What a great post! This was certainly a different view I could use. I’ve almost been thinking solely rational and I’m pretty sick and tired of it. This post gives me some new strenght to think different, more emotional, because that’s the way I wanted to head.
My main ‘problem’ is about girlfriends. I really want to have one, I think it would do me good, but at the same time I’m thinking that society puts pressure on those ‘responsablities’. Will I feel hapier when I find a girlfriend, or do I have to straight all my things out first, get completely happy on my own and then share it with a girl? I actually do think a higher status in society to get a greater chance of being happy, because people will get more interested in you.
For instance, apart from my study at the university (Amsterdam), I’m not working, because I get enough money from my parents for food, clothes etc. But when someone aks of me if I have a job and I answer ‘no’, they think a bit less of me. It’s not that I care that much (and it’s not that I don’t want to work), but it’s just that I can’t make them think different. If I would have an open minded, not competitive attitude, it still remains true that other people think in a way society prescibes them. This fixed society environment is pretty horrible. I would advise everyone who hasen’t seen the movie K-pax, to go and see that film. I’ve seen it once and the idea Kevin Spacey described of a self-containing society with no leaders, was great. Though it’s a complete utopia, I/We will have to the deal with the world it is, there is no other system possible on a world scale.

Again, thanks for the interesting post (and for the game Soldat, I’ve played it for year, one of my favourite games ever)!

Your heart does not betray you people do. Our heart is meant to pump blood thru our bodies.

namuol: yes this post is a product of the rational mind, but there is no other way I can express myself for you to understand. Maybe I can write a song one day to say what I feel…
I might change my mind of course, I’m very flexible. But as we stand here today, I’ve never been betrayed by my heart, by my thinking I’m betrayed every single day.

but isn’t this very thought a product of your rational mind? after all, you make a fairly logical argument.
You didn’t always feel this way about life, and if you’re still young enough, you’ll change your mind again.

nothing against the heart, i just don’t think there’s any simple solution to the human condition. 😉

i’ve been betrayed by rationalizations along with irrational feelings… they’re merely opposite poles on the same spectrum, and depending on where you currently stand, whichever pushed you to that extreme is the greater of two evils; ultimately, you will sway back.

i’m not saying one should give up, but i am saying don’t get upset if you change your mind (or heart) about this matter; it’s inevitable.

Spike that is exactly what I’m talking about!! It’s about finding your own purpose, not about following the reasons other people or society puts on you. Understanding this gives you so much power and freedom that sometimes it’s just unbearable:).
