Deciding Between Practicality and Humanity

What is it that helps one make decisions?
Do we do what our heart says?
Or what our mind calculates?

It seems difficult to see which decisions are rightly made,
Some say think from heart and u will stay happy,
Others say be practical, analyze and then decide.

I know that mind and heart never want the same,
What mind develops, is not accepted by heart,
And what heart cherishes, is worthless for the mind,

Is there any way to bring the two to a consensus?
Can we make our mind like what the heart wants?
Or make our heart understand why its right to do what the mind says?

Sad that practicality and humanity doesn’t go hand in hand these days
We get to pick only one of them,
And got to kill the other,
Which many a time leads to not so happy ending,

I wish I never get to decide between my heart and mind,
I would hate to betray any of it,
And only request my heart and mind to be in sync,
And help me decide the best, accepted by both.

Believe me decisions taken by the heart have no value these days!

Mind, Practicality and Logic is the only way of life.

Consider it the experience talking ;)
