Again, a perfect match of photo and quote. I am always delighted at how your work makes me think. Recently, I have encountered many young people, and some old ones, who think that all that is important are feelings and emotions. They think the heart should rule the mind. In fact, reason should rule all. Even in love, reason should never be abandoned. I understand that in the first blush of love, emotion is sometimes all we have, but later, a deeper love must rely on reason. The importance of reason should be at the center of all our decisions and beliefs. When someone tells me that emotion and feeling are at the center of everything in their lives, I stop listening. Not that they have no place, but we are thinking, sentient beings and should always bring that into play.
I agree with your comment. In an ideal world, emotions could be the most important thing to live, but in the real world, we need the reason. With only emotions, our life could be a chaos. Thank you for your kind words, and receive a big hug, my friend.
