I need to die for passion's sake

I was reading 1 Corinthians...

"If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing. If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it; but if I didn’t love others, I would have gained nothing."

Love drives our passions I think.

If an artist doesn't paint a painting without passion or love put into it, it's as good as a blank canvas.
If a musician sings a song, but doesn't feel passion or love in the notes or lyrics, he's as good as someone singing in silence.



I hate feeling empty in the things I do.

Yet there's almost nothing better in the world than feeling love in what I do.
