A senryu

The heart can always

Change what is in the mind, but

Never in reverse.

a simple but effective truth..this hits at the heart of what is..and what is cannot be changed..to speak such clarity with so few words is a skill in itself...hats off.

so so so so true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have tried and tried...my heart loves too much and my mind talks me out of it; only temporarily.

Oh, very intriguing and thought-provoking !

I agree that the heart can change anything the mind has set it's mind to do or say... but I believe the mind is also able to change the heart...of course it takes a lot more effort...there is the question of COST...what are the consequences of my 'change of heart' ?? Once that is determined, then the mind will change the heart...the heart is a fickle 'thing' at the best of times anyway... and the mind should rule the heart, and not vice versa.

Easier said than done, I know............")

Never thought of that, but now I will think about it. Can the mind ever change the heart? Interesting question and mystery.

The mind can't change what's in the heart...Hmmm...Yeah very good observation.
