Could depression not just be a loss of vision/perspective in life?

I know that depression is a clinical condition but I wonder if the true reasoning for depression is not loss of vision and perspective in life, the lack of purpose?
I have never come across anyone with a TRUE passion for something who is depressed.
I would love to hear your opinion and of people who ARE very passionate about something in life (and have made it their main focus in life, as in their business for example) and suffer from depression at the same time. Thanks so much.
