Cor te reducit.
"The heart leads you back"I am a strong believer in the power of love. I think that if two people are in love, and they're willing to make a relationship work, they can do anything they set their minds to. I've been in a relationship for three years, and I'll be the first to tell you we've gone some pretty horrible things.
Even though we've done some bad things to each other, I do believe that we're still together for a reason. It's because our hearts are in it, and once your hearts set on something, I believe the possibilities are endless. As long as we're both in love, I'm hoping we'll always be able to find our way back to each other.
What is your opinion? Do you agree with the Latin phrase "Cor te reducit"? Do you think the heart, love, can always lead you back? Even when you've lost sight of what once was?

I think the heart can lead you back, but it's your mind that's going to decide if being back is right for you.
If you want to follow it, then yes.
I think if the heart / mind feels strongly about it, then yes it can lead you back.
But sometimes, that isn't always the best option. Love is a difficult thing, but if it's really there then no matter what, i think it will work out.Thank you for this post.
I've never heard that phrase before. thank you for that.
No. Mostly because nothing will ever be equal. One person will either want more, or the other might lose interest. People who follow their hearts blindly tend to make stupid mistakes. By believing in a "soul mate", you're setting yourself up for a fall. Sure, if two people try their best to work it out, then they might last a long time. However, nothing lasts forever.

my personal belief is that love happens and sometimes with specific people the connection can be stronger in which your heart refuses to let go. In result, letting that person go can lead to greater distress and problems than letting that person back or continue to let that person to be in their lives. In that reasoning I believe in the power of lve and the connection between two people.
I have witnessed it in my own life and in the lives of others that I knw. I am not exactly sure about the whole soul mate aspect. I just believe that with some individuals belief in love can come in the form of believing in a soul mate. That is my opinion.
Though, I have to admit that personally some individuals are just meant to be with each other, at the least for an extended period of time to learn more about themselves and relationships.
@KrazeeKunoichi009@xanga - I agree with the pain that one can cause to themselves and others if they follow their hearts blindly. I just think that individuals need to think carefully of whether or not someone is the "one" or whether the person they are with is the person of just
"now"
It depends on every couple, because there are times that no matter how much love you have for one another and still you argue much it makes the relationship go shaky not unless they will settle the issues and agreed on certain issues to make the relationship works.
The key in the heart will lead back is-- agreed that you will work things out at all costs after the arguments and misunderstandings you once had before and if the love is still there.
definitely :)

It depends on if you both were meant to be together or not, that's what I think. You can both love each other, and try to make it work but it isn't meant to be then it just won't. Sometimes you just have to step back and see what life has in store for you.
Everything happens for a reason, people pop in and out of your life for a reason too.
On a sad note not everyone is meant to find their true love in this lifetime..very sad.
But, it is a learning experience and the next time you will know better.
It depends on the people... But I'd definitely like to believe that. :) I'm a hopeless romantic at times...And it shows. lol.
I like this post though. :)

i believe your heart can pull you, but you have to be willing to follow it.
"love is stronger than death." true love can withstand any problem or issue, and in the end the relationship is stronger. if you're not willing to patch things up with your boyfriend/girlfriend or they're not with you, especially if it's over something small, it's not meant to be.
@KrazeeKunoichi009@xanga - I have to agree with Karina on this one. This whole idea of a "sole mate" is nothing more then a depraved, twisted, and absolutely disgusting religious construct!
Beside the fact that it is a self limiting neuro linguistic curse.
I don't think love is enough. We need other things in our lives to survive, practical material things as well as other emotional supports, and even when love is there a partner may not be able to meet enough of those other needs or be supportive enough of those other life endeavors to work it out.
Love doesn't pay the bills, feed the kids, overcome serious abuse or addiction issues. Some people claim that love is only REAL love if it does do all that. I don't follow that line of thinking, there are real circumstances in life that cannot be solved by strong emotional attachments. I wish it were true that Love could conquer all things.
It's hard to say. Sometimes your heart wants to go back to it, but what if you know in your heart, that's not right? That you just can't take it anymore. I know I'm in that situation right now, and that me and my.. ex are in love but I think after everything we've been through, if we really love each other we will be willing to make it work no matter how long it takes.
no.
I think it can but only if you try and follow it.
My ex would say, Love is not enough. Meaning, exactly what it says.
They key notions you expressed, which I totally concur with is, "In Love and Willing", along with "Having your heart 'in' it"
However, I've come to believe that those notions are part of True Love. So with that being said, I believe Love is enough.
i believe that if you and him love each other enough to make things work, it's going to work but both of your hearts have to be willing to make that choice because it's not going to work if only one person wants it more than the other.
yes it definitely can
@zxzeebrastar@xanga - AGREE
Even if your heart does lead you back - you need to reevaluate and make sure it's what is right for you this time through.
These things get tricky and complicated sometimes.
definitely. I love that phrase actually.
I think that once both people feel the relationship is worth working for then it can. If one person isn't invested in the relationship anymore then the other person will just end up being left heartbroken.
