An apology for the Heart

I fear that I haven't been clear on my last post.
Some of you may have thought that I was defending the clear and logical Reason when I said: "How do we not fall when blindfolded?". But I was not. It is quite normal that, as heirs to the Humanists, we give Reason a very big and powerful name.
I have been told once that there are many parts of us. Many voices in our heads. As I've said before, we tend to split them in only two: Reason and Sentiment. Everyone has heard about these two eternal enemies, right?
So, we've learnt to asociate Reason with clear-headedness, judgement and even good mental health. On the other side Emotion walks hand-in-hand with wildness, unstability and madness.
And this is all we see.
How many times have we denied ourselves something good and refreshing because it didn't make any sense? And that is what my text was about. It was about the relativity of every voice in our heads, that leaves us without a clue of which one is right, and in defense of  the equilibrated consideration to be given to either Sentiment or Reason. Equal. (Since we are deeply used to dualities, it'll be easier to understand).


Now, my text was that of a person who knows that the Heart is right, but is afraid that this feeling is nothing but Innocence. And what do I mean by Heart?
What I'm speaking of is not just another voice, but what we know, deep down to be true. And because of these many voices, (Reason, Sentiment and Fear can be considered such, depending on the situation) what we know in our very soul to be right, is clouded and buried...difficult to see. But it is always there.
At times we feel negative. Negativity is clouding the Heart.
False hope does it, Fear does it, Attraction does it, Reason does it, Comfort does it.
But the Heart always knows.
And so I repeat: "...I can't help it. My heart wears a secret smile made of silence."
