I'm not sure if we all have the same meaning for 'following your heart'
The best way to describe it is if I saw two guys beating up another guy. Two things play in my mind:
1) Those guys look tough! Screw this! I'm out of here.
2) I wonder why they are beating that guy up? Does he deserve it? What would be the consequences if I were to interlope in this situation?
..........
3) There is no reason for one human being to harm another. It's just not right.
Then regardless of 1 or 2 I must assist this guy. My heart tells me that it isn't right for people to hurt each other and it wouldn't be right for me to just stand there either as this man gets beat for what ever reason......

But suppose the 1 guy getting beat up is some thieving, violent little shit who robbed and attacked the other 2 guys? Then you're the one in the wrong for helping him.

Whereas my justification would be the same. I've got nothing left, so fuck my humanity.

I have to agree with this assessment. I'd never attack or harm anybody for no reason, but if someone seriously and irreparably wronged me like murdering, raping etc. someone close to me, it'd be get a shotgun time. Revenge isn't justifiable, I know, but I'd still enact it. It's a reason I believe the death penalty should be brought back in the UK- it won't bring the victim back, but it may give the family some closure knowing that the scumbag who hurt them is dead and rotting.
