Celebrate The Passion

What’s your passion? Have you found it? So many people go through life not tapping into the power of their passion….Whether fear to take a risk or simply not taking the time to recognize it. We all have it in us and it’s our responsibility to both find it and honor it.

This is all about people and their passions…What they are, what they mean, how they’re used and how they were discovered. A bit of inspiration on your journey to discovering and honoring your passions.

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive."

-- Howard Thurman

Oscar Wilde said “Each man kills the thing he loves.” And it’s true. The mere possibility of getting what we want fills the soul of the ordinary person with guilt. We look around at all those who have failed to get what they want and feel that we do not deserve to get what we want either. We forget about all the obstacles we have overcame, all the suffering we endured, all the things we had to give up in order to get this far. I have known a lot of people who when their personal calling was within their grasp, went on to commit , a series of stupid mistakes and never reached their goal – when it was only a step away.

This is the most dangerous of the obstacles because it has kind of a saintly aura about it: renouncing joy and conquest. But if you believe yourself worthy of the thing you fought so hard to get then become an instrument of God, you help the soul of the World, and you understand why you are here.
