If the words “heart” and “mind” became one, it would be quite oxymoronic.

The two placed in the same sentence alone, with the exception of being portrayed as polar opposites, is irony in it’s true form.

So why then, do we have one of each? Why then, do we need not one, but both?

Would it not be of more sense to have two minds and one heart, for those of us who prefer logic? You need only one heart to live, after all.

Or perhaps, to have two hearts and one mind would be more appealing, especially to those of us who only wish to know as much as needed to separate all matters of the heart.

Some say knowledge is power, others say without feeling is without living.

Without a mind one would wonder the world a zombie. Asking no questions, accomplishing nothing. Without a heart, the world would be, but cold. Lifeless… And cruel.

We cannot be without one, yet to have both confuses our being. The morals of our hearts and standards of our minds never did correlate.

The mind remains insincere to itself by abiding to the virtues of the heart, while the heart pretends to see quality in the beliefs it hears spoken from the mind.

So what then, do the two combined create really? Other than, in it’s own true form, hypocrisy.
