Chasing Unicorns: Part 1
Posted: July 5, 2013 | Leave a CommentCan a man achieve true emotional connection with a woman? Can a woman find such a man with whom to share her life?
When presented with these two questions, I have found that many will reply with a ‘no’. There are many ways of portraying life as a couple, such as in the Ingmar Bergman film, Scenes from a Marriage or the Before Sunrise, Before Sunset, Before Midnight Trilogy. There are many examples in literature of formal and less formal unions such as Bridges of Madison County, The Age of Innocence or Loving Frank. All of these examples explore the idea of what it is to feel or not to feel some deep emotional connection. I believe there is value in discussing the possibility of such a connection in the lives of any two people who have come together, who are trying to find their way back to each other, who have left a relationship and wish to begin another, or who may contemplate leaving a relationship to find something more meaningful ………………. (this will be part of an ongoing commentary that I will add to over the coming weeks and months)
