The War between Heart and Mind

Have you ever have the thing? When there is a war between your heart and mind, where both of them are in contrary side each other? When logic have to beaten by feeling, vice versa. I believe, we, as a human being, already experienced it.

It could happen in many things and aspects. Through small and big things. Through less important to the most important things, we face it.

It could happen when you thing about more important things like career. Sometimes, in certain people, there are war between mind and heart, logic and feeling. If your mind won the battle, then you choose the job with high salary. If the other side won, you will choose job that goes along with your passion, though you won’t get salary as high as the first.

The war of logic and feeling happens also in less important things like love. In certain people and certain time, love of a person face it’s mind-vs-feeling war. Like someone who have to choose between marrying the one that she loves the most or the one who could give her financial security of a lifetime.

Or, simpler than that, when your logic world tells you that you got to stop thinking someone who hurts you versus your feeling that keep echoing “but I love her”.

There’s a war between heart and mind, between logic and feeling. It can take place anywhere. In your general life, in your career life, love life, through any aspects, whether it is big or small. Surely we will face it. I just pray to God, that we are lucky enough to have peace between two of that contrary side.

So we can have big salary from a job that is our passion.

Have someone to love that guarantees us financial security.

Or have the chance to start over with someone you love that previously hurt you.

God, please give us peace between that :)

Tonight I can Write The Saddest Lines

Tonight I can Write The Saddest Lines

Pablo Neruda 

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.

Write, for example, 'The night is shattered and the blue stars shivering in distance.'

The night wind revolves in the sky and sings.

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.

I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.

Through nights like this one I held her in my arms.

I kissed her again and again under the endless sky.

She loved me, sometimes I loved her too.

How could one not have loved her great still eyes.

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.

To think that I do not have her. To feel that I have lost her.

To hear the immense night, still more immense without her.

And the verse falls to the soul like dew to the pasture.

What does it matter that my love could not keep her.

The night is shattered and she is not with me.

This is all. In the distance someone is singing. In the distance.

My soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.

My sight tries to search her as though to bring her closer.

My heart looks for her, and she is not with me.

The same night whitening the same trees.

We, of that time, are no longer the same.

I no longer love her, that's certain, but how I loved her.

My voice tried to find the wind to touch her hearing.

Another's. She will be another's. As she was before my kisses.

Her voice, her bright body. Her infinite eyes.

I no longer love her, that's certain, but maybe I love her.

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

Because through nights like this one I held her in my arms

my soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.

Though this be the last pain that she makes me suffer

and these the last verses that I write for her.

***

This is a poem that tells what I have been feeling these several months.

but you flew with ignorance, so I have to do what the last line says.

Congratulations if you have your new one. I knew you do (or will do)

I love you. But you're just too unreachable, too expensive, 

to careless for even single 'hi' or 'bye'.and I just don't know why you do this. 

Especially after intoxicated by your heavenly bullshit

So I'm walking again. No matter how hard and long-winding it will be.

How tired I am of this unbearable distance between us

How I long for the toll of the recess bell

Have you forgotten me?

Grown mindless of me?

Tell me I am not writing into an abyss

Or that is what will become of my heart

Move On Medicine - A new branch of study LOL

Long time ago, sleep is just sleep. It’s just an ordinary thing, so if someone have difficulty on it, it will considered as  an ordinary problem, no particular concerns about that. But as human start to realized that sleeping problem alter many daily life aspects, physicians start to analyzed and take a deep concern about it. Then, voila, there’s a new branch in medicine named ‘Sleep Medicine”.

I recently have a random thought, super random after I read along twitter timeline. There I can see, almost everyday, there are people who talks about move on or how hard to deal with ex, and kinds of similar thing. I know it has nothing serious about, but hey, it will do alter human daily life.

I wonder whether there will be a time when there are places that offer some therapy for that. Where psychiatrist or psychologist do psychotherapy for such person. Patients would undergo relaxation, yoga, entertainments, to reduce their loss. Psychiatrist might prescribed some drugs if someone really need it.

Hahaha :D it will be funny.

But hey, many things are possible, right?

C’mon guys, who knows?
