Between Passion and Madness – a Fine Line
The line between passion and madness can be quite fine, and easily crossed. The romantic poets knew this and the following video illustrates it. Well, not the video but the different reactions to the video. But first, see for yourself what you think of this little love story:
A friend sent me the link to this video saying: “it will touch you – sooo beautiful!” To her, it was heartwarmingly romantic.
My first thought wasn’t of passion, but rather of madness. A woman who keeps secretly taking pictures of a guy on a train? Even when he’s asleep? Creepy! A guy who goes through her personal photos? Stalking! (And why does she keep taking pictures of herself? How vain!)
See how fine the line between passion and madness can be? And it’s all in the eye of the beholder.
