Heart, Mind, and Soul

  My heart talks to my mind, and my mind talks to my heart, and you know? They don't agree very much. This is one of the fundamental conflicts in human problem-solving. How many of us stumble along day after day listening to both, digging deeper and deeper into foggy confusion?  If you want clarity, you must insist on having it. Here we see analysis and emotions working at cross purposes.    Taking this a step further, we add that my soul gives me altogether different instructions, thus generating a three-way conflict between analysis, emotion, and beliefs. How some of us make it from day to day is miraculous.
