Brain Or Heart

Ipso facto because we like to be people that we might not be , many people will say right away, Brains. 

Like yes. I am smart , i don’t let my feelings in the way in ANY decision i ever do , i am 1000% productive , hail capitalism and hail me.

 I mean , Brain here without letting many cells thinking about it , i would choose brains too

. Like , i am not going to marry someone with my heart only sot they can divorce me later on and just live their life while i am hurt and broken. The thing is , The brain, the facts , the theory , is the better option , because at the end of the day we need to think about things rationally , but one crucial thing we forget about ourselves when we think about this is that we are Humans.

 And Humans scream imperfection. Not to say that we are bad , or that we are essentially very sensitive and sentimental creatures.

 Depends on who you are talking to , and not only that , but also when and how . Let me explain , for me i know i am sensitive , i also know that when it comes to certain decisions , i let only my brain think , but to others my heart races first. We are people who have feelings , we can be selfish and selfless , we have the free will to do so . 

But if you told me my friend is being shot at  in COD , and he is under heavy fire , count me in to jump and help him out , without a care in the world if i die. 

But say the same thing to me in the real world , this time , i might not jump in , but think how to save him in a smarter way . 

But was the first option wrong ? of course it’s stupid to do this in the real world , but also it’s what friendship gives us , this feeling that you want to protect your teammate , hence your country , your religion , your leader , your friend , your family , and so on. 

If the heart was not there in our decisions the world would be harsh , the world would be harder , the world would have more tears then smiles. I think the heart makes a weak in a way , but from it comes courage , love , respect , friendship and loyalty .

 The brain on the other hand gives us the survival instinct , the opportunist , the politician , the merchant. When you get a dog you think with your heart , not with your brain for example. 

Like… let’s be honest . you’re going to spend money on the dog , so , less money , less room for projects , less « productivity ». BUT also without the dog , you would keep being lonely , sad , or feeling like you want to have a dog , or have the sense of responsibility. Like a child , when you and your partner want to bring a baby , or adopt one , its a HUGE decision , but you do it , because you want to , you want to make a family , you want to live happily . 

Now for a child you can also think the heartless way , which is , that basically if i bring a child, like a tree at some point it’s going to give me something back , aka , money . But most parents , deep inside , don't want anything from their children , children themselves by themselves need to take care of their parents , if the parents deserved it , and even if they don’t , sometimes the kid need to do it , it’s just the heart talking. 

The brain is what let’s you rise up in your job usually , for instance , its the brain that made me make this website , « be productive » do something , add to your cv. Have money , help charities , help poor people , and to do that you need money , and there is nothing wrong with wanting money , if of course you will use it wisely. 

The brain is the worker , the heart is the you after the work, we need both if we want to be happy. My ultimate life goal is to be happy , i don't think I'd be happy if i didn't have money , nor do i think I'd be happy if my family was far from me and from each other. 

Listen , we all in our lives , let our hearts talk , we alll die , there is no shame in it , even if mistakes were made. The brain makes mistakes too . we are human , keep the balance between the two , use them in the appropriate place .Heart for friends and family , brain for work and future ambitions . Both will make you happier. Good grades are nice , friends laughing together is too. Before each decision take the time to think about it , sometimes , i twill need both . kinda like when you choose your university major, like.. for instance , if it was full brain for me , i would have went Marketing . But i went half half for this decision , which is a HUGE one , i am passionate about history , but i also know that one day i would love to be a teacher , and do my own thing with it. 

Do something you love , but at the same time , let your brain have a say. Another example , for a love relationship , ask yourself , are you seeing it evolve ? or is it just , "we Netflix and chill" and just  when we feel horny or sad ? search for true love , think ahead , think alone for a while , in the silence , ask yourself questions about your decisions , you may have done bad ones , fix them , if you cannot , it’s okay , it’s a lesson for the future. 

But remember , do not kill your heart and do not burry your brain , both are needed in most things
