Passion

Don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive.  And then go and do that.  Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.  ~Attributed to Howard Thurman

Passion
We get so bogged down by our work, responsibilities and commitments that it's easy to push aside the passion we once felt for life.   Everything used to feel so new and exciting.  Our relationships gave us butterflies in our stomachs.  We were thrilled about the possibilities of our new jobs.  We were excited about where life was taking us.  Somewhere along the line though, we traded in that passion for complacency.  The more we took those special things in our lives for granted, the more the spark seemed to fizzle.  All that is left is the memory of the thrill and we feel stuck on how to change our lives for the better.   But this doesn't have to be.  It's a choice you are making every day and maybe today you will choose differently.  Maybe today you will choose to once again feel that passion that drove you in the past.  It's easy to remember and it's just as easy to bring those feelings back to the forefront of your heart and soul.  It's time we infused the spark back into our lives so that we are fully engaged with everyone and everything that is around us.  If you want a more exciting job, well create it!  If you want to feel that spark back in your relationship, grab the matches!  It's our responsibility to make sure we remain passionate about everything life has to offer.  That's what makes it so exciting and new ~ always.  Don't ever lose your spark for life!
