A Car Guy Considers Love and Passion

1. For one human being to love another human being: that is perhaps the most difficult task that has been entrusted to us

2. But for a man to love his passion: that is perhaps the most rewarding task

3. because

4.Love for a passion is not at all biological like love for another human being

5. rather

6. It is something they must learn

7. So a REAL passion is hard to develop, but oh so captivating

8. because like in a relationship between a man and woman where

9. each of them loses themselves for the sake of the other person

10. A man with a true passion loses himself in that passion

11. And when your passion is for cars and trucks, you really lose yourself

12. Cus when you've gotta fast car, you think you've got everything


13. and while with love for another human being you

14. No longer possess anything of your own

15. When your love is your passion for cars and trucks it's all your own

16. and its full of excitement

17.

18.

19.

20. Because whether your burnin' rubber of flyin through mud

21. There's somethin' bout a truck

22. that just makes you want to yell

23. TRUCK YEAH

24. And when you're in a fast can you

25. always trust yourslef and your feelings

26. And get risky

27. Bending the rules and Breaking the Law

28. because

29. somethings just go hand in hand

30. And for a car guy its fast cars and excitement

31.Whcih is what pulls you into the deep passion

32. And when your love is for a passion that you can makle a career out of

33. Now that's something to be proud of

          I chose this theme because it plays off Rilke's ideas on love. I soft of related his ideas on love between a man and woman to the love a man has for his passion. Because I think in some cases this love may be even stronger, and can really pay off. But it relates to some of the difficulties and side effects of love like Rilke talks about, and shows some advantages to the love for a passion. I specifically chose to talk about a passion for cars and trucks, because I can relate to that topic. And I think I played the lines off of each other well because it started out going from the book, then shifted in love for a passion for cars and trucks, and ended in a sort of closing statement on the love for your passion. Which I think sort of is a good connection between Rilke's ideas and my own.
