Practicality

What's the deal with practicality?

The say that logic could come off as cold and efficient - emotionless and uncaring. Reason, it seems, can be carried out without much conscience. Is that what it means to be practical? To be efficient in everything? Cold in decisions and actions? I have always been proud that I'm quite logical, but that didn't mean I do not consider feelings as well. It hits me when people who used to do things one way suddenly shift their paradigm or way of doing things because they decided to be more practical. In effect, they may have become a little cold in the process. It really all comes down to priorities. If something isn't your priority, then its never going to be practical...
