What happens when you begin to think with your head and not your heart? Do you lose that "spark" that everyone is trying so desperatley to find? Do you become a robot? Do you lose your views on depth and beauty that you use to find in the most simple of objects? Or do you become smarter and less vulnerable? For your heart may know what makes you happy, but not what's right or healthy for you. But your head does know that being safe and barred from the rest of the world does in no way bring happiness. Is there a good medium? Can you heart know what's safe and happy? Are you safe when you're happy? Are you happy when you're safe? Maybe they're both there so you can experience both powers. Or maybe people stop using their heart when they get hurt. One broken heart is enough to ban yourself from ever thinking that way again. But maybe using your head and staying out of the game made you lose a chance that could have evolved into the best thing in your life, causing you to follow your heart's ambition. So what would you rather have: Being safe and being emotionally strong and unbroken? Or would you be happy with scars? But, then I guess you'd have to define happiness. Or sadness for that matter as well. Is happiness really a warm gun? Or is it a simple smile? Is sadness associated with death? Is it that empty feeling after something has passed you by and that void in your life is there once again? And what about perfection? Is it the world's view of a super model that is way too skinny but in someone's view "perfect"? Or is it looking into the eyes of someone you love and knowing the worst thing about them which inturn makes you love them even more? Or is it an outward, superficial type of thing? I really want to know all the answers the these questions before I die.
And for an opinion question, I want to know your definition on happiness or any emotion that I have listed. I seriously am interested in knowing what you think.
