"Don’t come, he won't be here. I'm sure. He's out of town. Mind your heart, instead...”- my best friend was trying to stop me from confronting my ex-boyfriend who was supposed to attend the same conference. He had left me, weeks before. No explanations. Vanished. I knew she was trying to spare me a humiliating scene. However, I went. I stormed into the hotel lobby. Conference participants were sharing drinks, introducing each other. ...

Then I saw him, smiling, his arms around my best friend:- “David, let me introduce you to my brand new wife, we got married this morning". ▲ Collapse | | | Özden Arıkan Germany Local time: 10:12 Member English to Turkish + ...

Oh no! This is crazy! Plain crazy, and I’m no more in. Enough with all that celery’n’sheep food’n’ sea bugs whole week. Enough with the foul smell of garlic! And with military training every morning!

Man traveled a long way to perfection, beings made to his image for there is no God but man. Millions of years slowly and painfully up the evolutional chain to advanced societies, freed from naive feelings and slavering passions, master and lord of himself. Grasped the secrets of nature to be...perfect. Children are little geniouses, no place for mistakes; perfect robots.

The twilight in his eyes, he said to himself "The heart...what's that?"

I went to my friend's house for a visit, unannounced, and found her all bruised, broken arm and nose. She was silently crying on the kitchen floor. "He did it again, didn't he?", I asked. "No", she said fighting her running nose, "I stumbled and fell." "Over what this time?", I was angry at her denial. "Over my own heart", she sighed and continued, "It's easy to stop, you know, once you finally decide to look what it is you are really falling over time and time again." | | | Aurora Humarán (X) Argentina Local time: 06:12 English to Spanish + ...

I did mind the heart! I had my echographies. I carried a Holter a full long day. I jogged every day with my Polar, my Nikes and my Timex, for a long time. I even ordered Galloway's book on running, through Amazon, and started Scarsdale’s diet by Dr. Tarnower (a cardiologist after all!)... What else? I underwent all cardiologic studies my cardiologist indicated: Doppler, CATs, stress tests. I took all the pills, the works... Everything was OK in my heart. I hav... See more I did mind the heart!

Mind Your Heart Don’t dash off up the stairs like that! See what you've left behind! Tend carefully the fragile heart, Or it will blow your mind! Don’t think you’ll simply walk away And leave your heart intact. It has a mind all of its own, I’ll tell you for a fact. It isn’t just yourself you harm. My heart is breaking too. I also have to mind my heart, And all because of you. Our ... See more Mind Your Heart Don’t dash off up the stairs like that! See what you've left behind! Tend carefully the fragile heart, Or it will blow your mind! Don’t think you’ll simply walk away And leave your heart intact. It has a mind all of its own, I’ll tell you for a fact. It isn’t just yourself you harm. My heart is breaking too. I also have to mind my heart, And all because of you. Our two hearts used to beat as one; Two hearts now broke in twain. I’ll mind your heart if you’ll mind mine. Don’t drive us both insane!

Heart and mind were having one of those heated discussions...as always. What to do, what to do when there is nothing one can do? Someone had to decide; heart or mind, and I couldn't choose which one to let take the lead this time. What to do? Mind would take me into a labyrinth of reasons, while Heart would do the same, this time into a maze of feelings. But now isn't forever, and life goes on. Which one made the decision, I don't know. All I can remember is the final answer: "Just let it go".<... See more Heart and mind were having one of those heated discussions...as always. What to do, what to do when there is nothing one can do?
