1) comedian: diagnosed with cancer and needed a way to laugh at the world
2) foodie/weight loss guru: started cooking, lost weight, and felt misled by all the "healthy" packaged foods that contain additives
3) graffiti artist: someone stole her markers at daycare
You get the drift.
My one qualm with the theory is that it makes passions/obsessions seem dysfunctional, because they're born from a negative. However, obsessions make people create things, tell stories, get things done. What if our lives are nothing but trying to fill one void after another? Is there anything wrong with that? Is there anything wrong with wanting to be a jelly muffin?
