It's sure better to follow your heart instead of living in a lie.
But I
understand that people sometimes make the wrong decision and then
don't know how to fix it. Or their decision is some kind of
sacrifice for
a higher aim.

See "living in bad faith."

Sartre, J-P. Being & Nothingness, Chapter II.

Hm, depends on whether we believe in the existence of a "free will".
Somehow
I doubt it and believe that we are slaves to our genes. Fortunately, we
have a perfect illusion of a 'free will'. :-)

Then again, some of us are slaves to our jeans... usually Levi-Strauss.


Hehehe, I guess this was a typical anthropology joke. :-)



Q: How do you tell a boy chromosome from a girl chromosome?

A: You pull down its jeans.


jeans-genes, some pronunciation, different meaning -- it's a pun.
