Tough Decisions

Some play it by the mind, while others by the heart.
As individuals we have always been taught to think and decide. The thinking process itself involves the mind where we reason out the implications, advantages, disadvantages etc of taking one decision over another. This process makes much sense to those of us who think analytically.

However, there comes a time when these analytical minds are faced with a decision where as much as the mind tries, it cannot convince the heart. A debate exists between the mind and heart and we are unable to decide on whom to listen to.
Such decisions are tough to make....

What's your life like?
