Second, NorEaster, I was addressing the thread, not you personally or specifically. But I must say that offering tv scenarios as direct evidence of anything is beyond silly. I do not watch tv or go to films so I really wouldn't know what might be "played out" there, nor is such tosh of any particular relevance here. We're discussing "head or heart", not your favorite soap opera. You do, however, write with a great deal of ego there in your text. You make a lot of sweeping statements as though they are gospel simply because you accept it as such.
Following one's heart is not pandering to highly subjective emotions. Following the heart can only be done after considerable meditation, purification, and deliberate self-knowledge. It doesn't just happen. It is far greater than simply weighing what one might read in print or see on some random screen. Things become very simple after such an endeavor. External validation is unnecessary. You still need that validation. You demand it. In that alone I know a great deal about you. Try to live one day without your ego. You will be amazed at what you learn.

I have a feeling that your life may just knock you on the head soon and change that. Then you may just grasp the words I've written. It's happened enough times in my years on this site that I would be willing to bet your turn comes soon.
