Is it drama or romance?

 


In the most varied ways of express affection for another person, we can perceive a conflicting aspect that is, in an attempt to offer such a feeling, we force the other to receive in the way that pleases the one who offers it, under penalty of being kept as slave of this gift or the non-acceptance of the same (it happens!), which, coated with beauty, has only one purpose, to create a colorful and fragrant dungeon; of making sharp scissors, made of gold, studded with diamonds, widely used in this peculiar exchange of affection. Scissors like those are made to cut... Cut everything that is deep, broad and ineffable like our wings. Drama!

It is possible that this same demonstration of affection comes full of real colors and perfumes, and therefore, with the purpose of building a paradise of happiness and harmony, where there are no limits between those who offer and those who receive affection, because between them there is no there is distance. These have two wings, each one in a body, providing a solo flight, but in two. The solidary and loving balance between the unequal, which provides the flight to the heights of growth in partnership. But the flight plan must be reflected in two, so that the unequal parts of the bodies with each wing meet smoothly in the sweetness of altruism, in understanding, listening and guiding. There are those who prefer the solo flight, and thus donate affection to everyone... It is also a beautiful and true flight! Romance!

I was thinking about this after seeing, some time ago, a couple at a college here in Salvador-Bahia-Brazil arguing and fighting, using aggressive gestures and words, in the institution's parking lot. I don't know if we're sure what we want for ourselves when we think about happiness, but we only look to the other fas a source of pleasure. Happiness is something else; something different from what is seen in these current relationships, where emotional addictions are the spice of the relationship, where there is an understanding that conflict is the thermometer of this search for happiness. 

We need to understand and separate what is Drama from what is Romance, so that a Tragedy will not to be modeled in the end. Separate what is useless from what is useful. Worship the good, the beautiful and the necessary for oneself, in order to know how to offer the same to the other. On pain of seeing time go by and not really knowing or realizing what is the style or modality of what should be a complete Work of Art, the definitive text, which was built over the years, and which most of the time, we mistakenly call it a relationship.
