Passions...we all have them and they come in all shapes, sizes and forms... one might delve into the possibility of them being destructive as well as formative... I like to think of them like this:
By starving emotions we become humorless, rigid and stereotyped; by repressing them, we become literal, reformatory and holier-than-thou; encouraged they perfume life; discouraged they poison it... You are cordially invited to share and "feel the passions of life"...
