A passion play.

Falling In love...

Or what happens when you fall down that long well of passion over a person and your heart goes boom and your mind leaves town.

Act-1,Scene-1

Lust:- (I think I love you,Who are you anyways?)

Here it is,The big "WoW",the big "Yes,Yes,Yes" you've been waiting for.This is when you find someone and believe they are better,greater,cuter,wiser,more wonderful than anything you've ever known.

"Lust isn't a sin,its a necessity,for with this as our guide,we imagine our bodies moving the way our bodies are meant to move.We can do marathons with our feet,lift pounds with our arms,have stars in our eyes and do a nifty dance routines.And you think....

"I have no need of food,I have no need of sleep,I have no needs other than occasionally talking to other mortals.You are the best thing that's ever happened to me,probably because you haven't happened to me yet.

Act-2,Scene-1

Poetically called Euphoria (or:ohhh yippie,you're mine)

You feel so funny inside.You feel you could do anything and no one would dare laugh at you.

This is love,you will treasure.You will not put it in the old basement next to your old clothes,your old walker or your sweatshirt.And you will not take this love for granted,because this is the biggest sin of all.And you will say.....

"I feel so good,I feel so strong,I feel actually attractive and I could learn to live with that feeling.Let us sing and dance and eat brown mushy foods,low in fat.

Oh joy!Oh rapture!

But what if I am no good at this?

"I am a dingy speck or I am becoming very very afraid.This must be because I am passive into the next part of love called....ANXIETY.

Act-2,Scene-2

Anxiety:- (also known as: uh-oh)

"This is where the doubt begins,where the mind comes back from shopping,yells at the heart,binds and gags it to a nice lounge chair,and allows guilt,failure and remembrance of things past to sit in for a warm glass of red wine,the glow of the candle light and a well used sofa"

This is where you fear what you need most.If its a person you love,you fear of appearing foolish in front of them.I am not demeaning myself,I have relatives to do that.But I leave it for the next act....

Act-2,Scene-3

Revolt:- (the truth...The whole of it and nothing but it)

Love is hard work.And sometimes,hard work can really hurt.

Love is a game.If they didn't tell you before we will tell you now.Love is a game and if you play you either win or get ejected before the game is over.There are no ties.

Maybe you will lose and learn some great meaningful answers from it all.Like,if it looks too good to be true,it is!Its easy to love something when you don't have to work at it.Its harder when it asks something of you,you might be afraid to give.

Act-3

Give it away.....

"The heart is the most resilient muscle.It is also the stupidest.so if this love you've found is good to you,hold it,keep it,shout about it.If it isn't then maybe you should just become very good friends....

The finale-also known as the big whopper doodle,or,the most important part of this whole darn thing...

"So this is love,as demanding and nourishing and difficult it can be,and as strong and wise it makes you become.There is something to be gained from commitment.There are rewards for staying when you rather leave.And there is something to be said from running up that hill when you would rather slide down it.And so you let love come perch upon your shoulder,and you do not turn away. You do the tango.

"Just do it."
