Little info about a Phoenix

As the graceful phoenix soars through the sky, a magnificent rainbow trail is left behind...

{The Phoenix is a mythical sacred firebird, with golden/red plumage. It's lifespan is normally 500-1461 years and it has the ability to be reborn after the end of it's life-cycle. Another ability of it is regeneration. It can heal itself when hurt or wounded, making it almost immortal and invincible. The Phoenix is a symbol of fire/divinity and it's tears are able to heal wounds...as shown in a couple of the Harry Potter series}

Can logics/emotions exist in one being with no conflicts?

Ahh...the typical question asked when doing facebook personality quizzes..."Is your mind ruled by your head or heart?" or something along that line...*thinks for a moment* yeah something like that. That's what I feel like talking about today ...

Now...to be the perfect being, we would probably be able to strike a balance between logic and emotions...meaning we are both logical and yet sensitive at the same time...what do you people think? I personally have formed an opinion that to be both logical and sensitive...it's near impossible...if you achieve that stage...you can be known...well...in DOTA terms as Godlike. I shall marvel at anyone who has actually reached that stage. Let us be realistic, practical and down-to-earth over here. Logic and emotions are like two opposite ends of the spectrum. There are countless occassions whereby you cannot give an answer which are both logical and sensitive.

A typical example would be someone you know really well and you are good friends with has a stinking attitude. Now, the logical thing to do would be to tell that person his/her attitude stinks. However that would be logic and not sensitive. If you want to be sensitive you say no you don't suck or keep quiet if he/she doesn't ask. Another example...again a gd friend of yours comes up to you and complains about how their parents are treating them, but you are able to tell that they are at fault and it's really not their parents, except for the fact that their parents are concerned. Logic: Be direct. tell them it's their fault; Sensitive: Agree with them, listen to them rant. In both cases, you can't do both can you? If you do people would think u shud be in the looney bin or something or they would think of it as a joke.

Logic. scientists revel in them, facts and formulas are based on them, engineers live with them. What is logic? When we do or say something, people go: "Hmmm that's logical" or "that's completely illogical" Who are we to question logic? It's like questioning facts and formulas...and going right down to the core basics...you would either get a very complicated answer which you have absoloutey no clue on what they are saying...or you would simply get a "just accept it!" response ^^ Now...do you think humans can be solely logical creatures? Perhaps one may think that he's a complete logical person...but to be fair...even an EXTREMELY logical person makes mistakes at times and do illogical stuff....rare....but it happens. Logic is strongly linked to science, in fact science is completely based on logic which is why in general males tend to do better in them whereas females would fair better in the arts. [there are always exceptions though ;) ] We always reason things out with logics: supernatural phenomenons, mysteries and the likes...That's how debates come about. When debating, we have to use logics in order to argue our point across, including deductive and inductive reasonings. We can't just go up on stage and start crying hoping we would win the sympathy and go home with the trophy. It wouldn't be called a debating competition...it would be called who-can-leak-the-most-tears competition. Logic does rule our lives and affects our decision-makings to a certain extent, perhaps because since it's logical everyone would/should do it. Logic is overall the same within society. We have different views but if we find something logical and someone else doesn't...chances r that the majority view would be logical...whether it's true or not...it's another issue...

is quite tough for one human being to be both logical and emotional at the same time...unless he or she suffers from schizophrenia (multiple personalities) then...well...that would be an exception...but even then...what are the odds of getting one personality which is REALLY logical and having another personality that is REALLY sensitive. Humans are by nature emotional and sensitive creatures. That's why we are called humans. Some people are naturally way more sensitive than others while some have such little sensitivity that people simply label them as 'insensitive'. There are no humans in this world who possess no sensitivity when they are born. Some deem to be completely insensitive but it is only perhaps something that they acquire after a period of time...not something that is in-born. Either that or you are a cyborg which you have no clue that you are...how to test? You short-circuit when you bathe ^^ okay that was just a (lame) joke. Seriously, humans are sensitve creatures. The degree of sensitivity in each individual differs, not just between genders or age, but individuals, right down to our very souls.

Logics and emotions...two opposite ends of the spectrum. they are both existent within us but we would always be dominated by one or the other. It is not exactly a good idea to deny the fact or not believe in the existence of logics/emotions...we must learn to keep an open mind and accept. Embrace our emotions/logic sides, depending on which one you are trying to put off. For me, it's my emotional side since as a girl that's naturally my domineering trait. I learnt the hard way that being logical isn't always easy...being too emotional isn't a good idea either. Thus i'm seeking to be balance...of course like i said...it would be an almost impossible task to achieve. In the meantime people... think about it...logics and emotions..can they really coexist in complete balance and harmony within one person with no conflicts?
