Passion and obsession


"She's hot, she's cool, she's just irresistible, she's amazingly attractive, she's beautiful." This is not about a super hot shot Hollywood diva but yes this is what a guy passionate about cars would describe his dream car like. This guy actually dreams about cars. Just like one fears losing his near and dear ones, this guy actually views a dream about his car getting drowned in a swamp and he is trying hard to save her and feeling terrible when he is not able to rescue her.

Its something crazy. And this craziness is what is called passion. Its a driving force. Something that actually makes you live life. One can retire from work but one can never retire from his passion. Perfection can be well achieved by passion. It's passion that made Sachin Tendulkar a 100 on 100 perfect.

There's a thin line of difference between passion and obsession. Going by the dictionary meaning passion is an intense feeling, emotion or desire for something while obsession is domination of one's thoughts or feelings by a persistent idea, image, desire etc. It can be understood this way passion in its negative form is obsession and obsession in its positive form is passion.

Passion can have innumerable forms ranging from cars, bikes, dance to cricket, music, and what not. These flames of passion should always be kept burning as this fire cannot harm when given the right direction.
