War between heart and mind

I am alive. Its a real thing and i am not dead yet. Thank God for that.
But it does not mean everything is clear. There is a constant war going on. Between two most important parts of my body. My heart and my brain. Even if both of them are interdependent still they fight and they have to fight to survive, for me to survive.

Its a eternal war that goes on between them over who will take control over the other.

The “WE” in us is a consequence of this war. Every new fight sequence is a mother of a newborn emotion or a feeling or a reaction to some happening. Or body is the “Kurukshetra” for them. Each cell in our body are the pawns. Our total existence remains on the fact that the fight goes on in a balanced way forever. The day the war ceases, we are dead.

The mind wins over the heart at times when it is a question of rational calculated judgement. Whereas the heart is a temporal organ(ism) who takes im”pulse”ive decisions and is often criticized the mind for doing that. For example, the heart will not think of consequences when it tells at its soldiers to go to a bar and drink to full or go and puff up the whole cigarette box. Mind will always try to run its military of thoughts to win over. But in these situations the heart has its own strength which it gathers from the whole arrat of emotions flowing from every part of the body to it.

As against this the mind is rational and wins over the brain when it comes to deciding what to buy and what not to buy even if the heart if fighting over its wants and love for some other stuff. Calculated risks and decisions are jobs of brain. But they are not always in good health and are always ridiculed over by the heart as being “acts of cowardness”. You have to note hear that the heart does not have a brain of itself and so it does not know how brain ahs calculatedly decided what to buy.

These organ(isms) often come together to fight another one, which is most of the times hazardous to all three : The Heart, The Mind and the Body. They fight collectively with “The Despair”. This one is am intangible and invisible entity ( you can call it as a virus) which slowly infiltrates the militia of them both and creates fights amongst themselves.
There are known incidences when both the sides have been totally infiltrated and the whole system compromised where neither of them have any choice but to put the arms down and surrender. This is total defeat of the whole life support. Body in itself cannot survive as a barren piece or war land on which no war is being fought. It eventually dies and The Despair searches now for another territory.

But most of the times these two make up a good combo and give a good fight to The Despair and banish him out of the territory. Done that they are again back to original foes and keep on fighting.

Long live the war between the Heart and the Mind.!!!!!
