Passion Speaks

Hello Everyone!
I enjoyed writing about Passion in my recent e-zine newsletter. Passion is really a strong word- maybe even so strong a word that we shy away from it. AND, we all know what it means for us. It could be that it conjures up images of lustful sexual desire and romance novels. Here I am referring to a really strong drive, desire or interest- something that brings great pleasure.
What are you passionate about? What gets your mojo going? Recently, when I walked with a friend in the woods she told her story about her recent family trip to the US Midwest. She described in the most vivid, technicolor detail the idyllic hike she took with her family in an astounding canyon. Her entire being expressed the passion she felt; her almost glassy eyes, her voice, her word choice and her body language. I almost felt like I was there too. When passion speaks you hear it AND feel it.
What do you get passionate about? What lights you up. There’s enough bad news in the media. This is a feel good place. So let’s start a passion poll!
