Passion is a gift.
I don’t believe people simply choose to live
passionately. I believe they might want
to do this, but the actual act is something that requires so much commitment it
is beyond sheer will power.
Passionate living means opening myself to possibilities many
people wouldn’t even dream of. It isn’t
necessarily good, or full of common sense.
In fact, it can be, or at least can appear to be, just the opposite.
It means diving in with both feet, often with eyes closed in
blind faith and a heart wide open to the possibility of incredible pain.
It is a willingness to take what comes because it is worth
it.
It means that sometimes I must let go of heart wrenchingly
dear dreams because they simply were not meant to be.
With great passion comes the chance of great pain – but it
is worth it – and more importantly it is not really a choice.
And when it pans out?
It is miraculous!
