“We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.”
~ Albert Einstein
The “person” part of the personality, your essence, resides in your heart.
You can think and think and think and think about something from every possible angle, but it’s not until your energy shifts from your head to your heart that you can truly experience it. Love, compassion, peace, joy, sadness and all the other emotions — these are not intellectual concepts, they are states of being.
Use your mind’s muscles, my friend, but don’t let them keep you from experiencing life. Balance and the best of life are found in the heart.
