i was once being told by someone,
to have a heart that's bigger than mind
to have a generous heart
to have a heart over mind
and not to think with mind but heart.
i questioned myself multiple times
"it's the same thing as categorizing myself as a dumb person."
sadly, i asked my mind
i closed my heart
i was too numb from other's thought.
i put myself first.
but when there's only me
staring at a blank paper
and empty mind,
with a scattered heart
i let it speak.
and when i do,
i get the answer
which isn't what my mind wants me to be.
generous heart
will be followed by the wicked mind.
bigger heart
will be followed by the twisted mind.
your heart will lead your way
and not your mind
that can trap you inside a hole.
and the most important,
your heart feels the thing your mind can't.
so no wonder why this world is filled with selfish humans.
mind is logic.
but heart is illogically logical.
