Head? Heart? Forget it?

We all deserve to be happy right? But saying that, to what extent should we go to make ourselves happy? To what extent is it right to hurt someone else in order to gain ourselves happiness?

I can’t figure it.

There’s no guide to life. And, aside from the law, there’s no right or wrong. So, how are we supposed to make decisions?

I’m only 19 and so far I’ve learnt that sometimes we have to have jumped in the deep end and nearly drowned for us to learn a lesson. But often, even that isn’t enough.

I still can’t seem to gage when it’s worth taking the leap.

In awkward situations there always seems two ways out; one which hurts us and one which hurts somebody else, but which should we take? Should we perform acts of selfishness so we can have a smile on our own face? In life we have ourselves. Not each other; we can rely on nobody as much as we can rely on ourselves. No-one will tell us what to do, although if we’re lucky, they may advise us.

Trust no-one and don’t depend on anybody so much that you’re leaning on them because if they step to the side you’ll be on the ground. At rock bottom.

The question is, do we follow our heads or our hearts?
