Passion




Hello readers,

The other night my husband and I were having a conversation with our son about track and field. Track and field is a sport he is passionate about and wants to participate in for a lifetime. During this conversation we asked him to define the word passion. He mentioned something along the lines of strong desire. I pulled out my handy “smart phone” (how did we survive without them) and found this definition on Dictionary.com. It states passion is “any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling, as love or hate or a strong amorous feeling or desire; love; ardor”. Notice the words “powerful and strong”; these words explain the depth of passion and what it means. We explained to him passion means you eat, sleep, live, and dream about the one thing you want. If a person has a passion for anything they will read about it, learn it, study it, do it, practice it, and I think you get the picture. We asked our son does he exercise all of the previous mentioned. Now ask yourself what are you passionate about and what are you going to do about it.

Your thoughts are welcome…
