To Think... or To Feel...

Life is a comedy for those who think... and a tragedy for those who feel. ~ Horace Walpole
How True... I realise that I have been feeling alot these days. I was usually a thinker, and I used to ridicule those who feel. Feeling used to be something secondary for me. It was something that was illusional, and misleading. It was something that would mislead you. When I was a thinker, I used to be very happy, and carefree. Now, I still think, but sometimes I feel more, and so I feel more miserable. Feeling is human isn't it? Then why the pain? Which is the right thing to do? Think or Feel? Tell me it is the balance between the both, and I will ask you where to stop.

I really dunno how much of a balance we can mantain between thinking and feeling..but feeling for the right things(even if leads u to losing some of ur peace of mind)is important!

i feel a lot when a friend is depressed,when i miss someone,when i get scolded by dad and the list goes on...dats sort of natural...the line between feeling and thinking is whether u follow ur heart or ur mind..and for me its always the heart in most of the cases...

to think, or to feel... Hmm.. gud Q, (now where the hell is tht skull)... its often not a gud idea to preach something and not follow a bit of it, but if its help tht u want. here's some free advice.. : "Use ure mind when u r thinking(treating) abt ureself; and the heart, when dealing with others".. sounds gud and easy eh ??? not quite... invariably, u tend to be softer on ureself and a lot tougher on those around(unintentionally, or otherwise).. when u can think things out, do it.. when u can't follow ure heart..


another thing tht i firmly belive in(one of the others being ,... u know the one abt gals and tech.) - A woman's instinct almost never goes wrong.. in times of my crisis, its my mum who i finally look upto.. and i reallly don't know if this comment is anymore relevant or id u'll find it useful.. either ways, her goes...

Hey wat FEELING are u talking abt??
LOL

Lemme be serious now..

One shud not feel for anything....
just learn from the mistakes and proceed further...
wen u start to feel for an issue...ur mind will loose the thinking capacity obviously u will endup in a wrong decisions or actions...
so keep ur mind young and energetic, without feeling..
so u can take right decision and do things rite...!!!
sorry for the lecture..
but this is wat i feel abt this topic...

You have asked a difficult question. We should think before we feel, why should we feel for this and this feeling is good or bad.
I like to feel the nature and its beauty.

hmm.. thanks for all you guys reply. I think i feel better now. I mean I feel I think better now. Oh whatever.

::Saras::
I agree that feeling for the right things is important.

::Vinod::
Actually, I most of the times tend to be harsh on myself, and soft when it comes to others. Women instincts? I have not really observed mine for a long time.

::Sathya::
What you say is true. One can be young and energetic when there are no worries. But don't you think that feeling to a certain extend is exciting? You can only feel love not think it; but you can think whether you are in love or not.
I dunno.

::Jeevan::
Yes Jeevan, there are certain things that we can appreciate only by feeling.

For me, I realised today that what you feel or think is only important to a certain extend. At the end of the day, what affects your moods, largely depends on what others think and feel about you.
My conclusion:
Thinking is important when it is about the Feeling of others.
