Question Heart or Brain?

I once read an article by Marilyn Vos Savant which asked her, "If your heart says one thing and your brain says another, which do you go with and why?"

She responded, "I'd go with my brain, knowing that my heart would fall in line as it realized it wasn't being hurt."

That has gotten me through a lot of situations, but now I'd like to ask the Greek Chat Community: Do you ever go with your feelings, forget about the consequences?

The last time I got a very strong "I should do such and such" feeling was a few years ago, and I ignored it. I ended up in the hospital (this would make more sense if I fully explained the circumstances, but don't hold your breath). I have the beginning of that feeling again, involving a plane trip, and no, I'm not the least bit afraid of flying. I know I will be laughed at, should I say that I have a bad feeling about this - but I really don't feel as if I should go. HELP! (That's question 2.)
