decisions...

"when u need to decide something important
and ur head tells u one thing and ur heart tells u another;
before u decide...
be sure, you know,
whether you have a better head or heart."
- anon.

i'd read something like this a long long time back *hence, it may not be the exact quote*

but what do you do if you have no clue whether your head is stronger or your heart? how then, do u decide?

Go by your past decisions.. if you have always used your head for them, that's the one you should follow .. and vice versa. Has worked for me is all I can say...

And yeah, did I ever say I hate making decisions too? :)

All the best, for whatever you decide.

i always decide by heart... might regret lately though.. but even if i take decision to follow my mind i fail in fulfilling this, end up following the heart after all
i believe that whatever decision i take it is always a right one because thats what makes me, even if i fall down i then will have no other choice but to stand up and keep going.. Noone to blame :)

Weelllll....

You think the decision out with your head first (or your heart, order doesn't matter) and then imagine how each decision affects the future... visualise the future following each decision and then pick the one you like the best. :D

It's still the same logic, sure... but it's more... well... far-seeing.

And sure, things won't be exactly as you imagined them... but why worry about that?

Does this have anything to do with your trip???

you wanna try a weighing scale? :P Sorry, bad joke.

You know it isn't about the head or the heart, it's about what is good for both. I know, I only add to your confusion, but I am a Libran, I cannot make decisions if my life depended on it. Good luck, babe.

do what feels right and keep ones fingers crossed.. sometimes its wiser to follow the head but then there are matters where the heart should rule supreme..

goodluck babes

Life is much simpler equation that it looks rather that we make it... in true sense...with deep thinking with head or heart says the same thing...

~nm said...

you use heads or tails? :P

Ok jokes apart. Yaar..its a very difficult thing to answer. Utna hi difficult jitna decide karna ki kya use karna hai!

Pinku said...

hey just do what your heart says is right. It moves only in one direction unlike the head which will confuse you with a plethora of options and whichever you choose will come back to say tsk tsk...

Have faith in yourself and you will always do whats the right thing to do.

RADhika said...

i guess in such situation, just do what ur heart says...cannot explain the reason, coz right now my head is not working! and this is exactly the advantage of listening to ur heart, it doesnt require much of a thinking!

By Deepa and Supriya said...

sleep on it...some things decide on their own...the answers just come to u...i firmly believe in that

Anonymous said...

In such case always good and wise to follow, what your heart says...finally heart wins..over mind.

Preethi said...

too much to think about

rayshma said...

i did what orch suggested... slept on it. and yeah, the answers just kind of came.. :)
as of now, have decided. at least decided enouhg to put the ball in the other court! :D
thanks again... for the comments and the mails. appreciate them! :)

Pixie said...

I usually go with Instinct in such cases...
I guess that would be heart right?!
And better still is to sleep on it like Orch says :-)
I guess I'm way too late with this comment!!

harish said...

ask your kidneys??

Sarfraaz Ahmed said...

Probably late, but if sleep doesnt help, decide on the option that hurts the least number of people.

Savani said...

ask the better half, toss a coin, consult tarot readers :) raysh... hope you decide soon!

rayshma said...

dottie.. decided :) better half was as confused as i was! :D

sarfraaz: neither option hurt anybody :)

harish: has that done u a load of good?

pix: good to see u back :)
