About This Quote

It is the heart that tells the brain what to think and feel. The heart often makes decisions that are not in line with our logical and reasonable thinking. It also calculates and decides which emotions we should feel. For instance, we can feel happy when we're sad and we can feel angry when we're happy.

We can be hurt when we're happy and we can be angry when we're hurt. The heart doesn't like it when the brain makes these types of decisions because it doesn't want us to be unhappy or angry.
