Love your passion
What’s your passion? What’s life without it?
Whether your passion is for your job, a hobby, helping others or personal growth, our passion for fulfilment should be the driving force behind what we do.
I recently found my passion. I don’t know why it took me so long to find it when it was right under my nose for some 20 years. I think I originally located it almost 10 years ago but for whatever reason it fell by the wayside. Now, apparently, I’m not the same person I was a decade ago. Every cell in my body has since been replaced but the embers of that same fire have been reignited.
Perhaps it wasn’t the ‘right time’ then. Every fibre of my being tells me it is the right time now and nothing nor no one will tell me it’s not. If there are naysayers in my path, I will listen to their words and move on without a backwards glance. My dreams will become possible with passion.
That passion in my heart will allow me to accomplish great things.

I LOVE where you are in your life right now. Interesting that I’ve found your blog today, I feel like I’m in a very similar place.
Soooo you’ve left us hanging, what’s your passion?
It’s ironic how some things happen but always for a reason.
Blogging helped me find my passion which is writing. Off my blog I have written my first children’s book.
Your comment is truly appreciated.
What is your passion? Is it drawing?
Is your book published? I have two daughters 6 and 11 who love to read.
After years of avoiding it and dancing around the subject, last week I accepted that my passion is in spiritual leadership. Yesterday I started outlining a metaphoric book about a man who inherits a house from his father on the condition that he renovate it and live in it. As he rebuilds the house and the garden his life transforms. It’s been a LONG time since I’ve been this excited about a project.
Not as yet. I am sending it to the publishers on June 30. With 19 years teaching experience and 6 of those as a parent, I am hopeful. I do know that a lot of it is still determined by luck.
Your story sounds inspiring. The excitement you feel is conveyed in your words. Have you written/published anything else before?
How exciting. Let us all know when you’re in print.
Most of my writing has been in script form so far. A few produced plays, nothing in print . . . yet.
The tricky thing about passions is that you can’t always tell what they are. Many times they pounce on you when you least expect and the time is right.
For me it felt like little pieces that I had to find or that found me: writing, children, books and a love of words and language have all just come together this year.
Maybe it’s all just part of my midlife transition but I have been searching for near-on 18 months for the passion to be reignited within. The joys of closing in on 40.
Sometimes they come and go as well. I agree writing is a good one. It seems to have stuck with me down through the years
I hope writing doesn’t abandon me. I’ll stick with it as long as it’s prepared to put up with me!
Yeah! to finding your passion! It is a life changer. I am glad that you stand strong on the foundation of your passion! You are going to do amazing things…
It feels like I’ve opened a window that has been shut for too long. The fresh air fills my lungs and has lifted my spirit. I have a renewed sense of purpose.
Are you living your passion?
I’m figuring out mine. I think it has to do with showing a gentler way to heal. …being an example
that it is possible..though there are different paths…I’m getting more clues. Blogging and chatting with others here has been so helpful. I hadn’t expected that.

I like the clues part. Sometimes it only reveals a part of itself. As already mentioned in another comment, it has taken me nearly 20 years.
Blogging was the final clue for me.

Hm, it took me 20 years to find peace with my illness. Maybe it is something about getting a bit older and wiser.
🙂
I think you may be onto something there.
I so agree)
