Passion

Passion is the essence of life. Love exorts us to abandon self-control and surrender to Desire. Justice demands that we allow ourselves to be consumed by our anger. Passion is what makes us Human. We cannot know hate without first experiencing love, we cannot know sorrow without a knowledge of Joy…to be alive is to dance with the shadows. To feel is to be free. The enemy of Passion is fear. Religion is a construct of fear, an invention of men who are afraid of their own shadows, afraid of their own human nature and nature itself. Passion is salvation. The renunciation of Passion is a chilly icy death. The essence of God is Passion.
