Here is one of the posts I promised inspired by Phantom of the Opera. The Phantom, so desperate to experience love and companionship, steals Christine away and tries to procure a lifetime with her. To him Christine is a God, a being that would bring him true happiness with just the slightest touch. Only a being like her could possibly love the monster in him.
Is there a monster in all of us? Do we feel that we could never truly be loved by anyone? We long to find an angel that will see us for something BETTER than we are because we feel that no one could possibly love this monster. But then we discover that even this angel is no heavenly being and maybe there is someone who could make us feel loved. Perhaps that is one thing humans want: the companionship they don't deserve.
