Strawberry Rose Painting

It won't all fit here for a change. Talking about love, passion and also attraction deserves a lot of post, maybe a video. But even so, certain things can't be fully exposed - it's no use trying to get it out of me haha ​​- because the differences can be so deep that it's not worth the effort. Also, something that virtually no one talks about - in a truly honest way - is how men and women experience these "things" differently. Maybe because most of them don't even know how to explain what happens, but also because men and women have their own agendas in this regard; in other words, your own strategies. Many would feel attacked by the end of the "mystery" that surrounds all this to the point of refusing to hear - much less accept - things as they are. Because this "magic" is lost. But it is worth remembering that it is such "magic" that propels us both to the imaginary sky and to the real ground. I know this because I was one of those. Anyone who was raised with Disney in their veins and was punched in the face knows how. My idealistic edge still resists, maybe because of what I do. To be an artist is to be somewhat idealistic, always looking for the unattainable without being permanently discouraged. Some are by the way, but here I am! I don't want to ruin anyone's ideals: dreams are dreams and many can be realized - as I have already done and have been doing - but life is life, and... ...in life, at least once - except for completely insensitive psychopaths - we go through shocking situations, such as great passions. And it is about this, among other things, that I will paint, in installments, in this and future posts. Did you know that the word "passion" comes from the Latin PASSIO ("suffering, passivity, the act of enduring") and the Greek PATHE ("to feel" - both good and bad things)? It's not to scare you, but if you think passion has a good sense, it's a reminder that it was in the "Passion of Christ" that Jesus was crucified and even He, desolate, cried: "My God, My God, why did you leave me"? Only in a masochistic universe would losing your hunger, sleep, messing up your stomach and maybe even getting lost together would be desirable, or worse: "romantic". The big mistake is to confuse suffering with love. Even though there are several types of love - only in Greece there were about 7 I think - none of them probably was and is not linked to such type of suffering. In fact, suffering is no proof of love at all. And it's something that only makes the situation worse for everyone, besides pushing people away, even if at first the others show some kind of... Just look at the magic word: COMPASSION. Perhaps it is necessary to develop a new word that is better suited to love issues other than "passion". I don't know if after reading this there will be people who will stop to think very carefully before running the risk of falling in love (now it's hard to say that word haha), but I believe that, first of all, having more awareness and new knowledge of the love dynamics, we can establish much healthier bonds, even if the so called "Disney magic" turns into pumpkin. With better insight into things, it is possible to create new bonds that are not only healthier, but also honest and respectful not only with others, but also with oneself. Don't give up everything, of course, but respect yourself in the first place, as you will win the respect of others, even if men and women see love situations through different angles. We are not only different biologically, but also psychologically, in spite of everything you say out there, say what you want. My experience is in practice. And in practice... The theory is different, isn't it? Eric
