There is stimulus in people or situations that converts love into hate. That is the thin line.
A thin line…
How often have we heard of this phrase ‘a thin line’? A figure of speech that is used to express the blurred / blurring line between two opposites – be it situations, feelings or actions, ideas, attitudes and so on.
There is a thin line between –
Needs and wants,
Courage and stupidity,
Guilt and shame,
Reality and imagination,
Passion and obsession,
Genius and eccentricity,
Assertiveness and aggressiveness,
Love and hate,
Life and death…. the list seems endless.
Human race is endowed with intelligence quotient and emotional quotient to distinguish the thin line. Most times this helps in being on the correct / positive side of the thin line. Too much being driven only by the head or only by the heart may make one cross over the thin line into darker possibilities / outcomes. A combination of IQ and EQ enables one to maintain the sanctity of the thin line between anything and everything. Worth a thought.
