Louisa, Could there be passion without joy?
Yes I think so Gobody...you can passionately hate something or someone? you can look at "passion" as an emotional plaster - and it will never bring you anything but momentary joy...well that's just what I think. Don't you agree?
I think passion is a positive emotion and it does not go hand in hand with a negative emotion like hate. you cannot in essence hold two emotions at the same time, alternating between them is different. This is my opinion.
