I've been thinking a lot in the past couple of weeks (that's what happens when I have too much free time!) As I have read blogs of various friends , I have realized the lack of passion in my life. They each seem to have things in their life that drives them forward. That they are truly passionate about. I looked up the definition of passion.........Passion is an intense emotion compelling feeling, enthusiasm, or desire for anything and often requiring action. Passion often applies to lively or eager interest in or admiration for a proposal, cause, or activity or love. I just really want to find that enthusiasm for something in my life. I have had it many times throughout my life for different things.....sports, missionary work, education, Polynesian culture and of course love. I just seem to be missing that passion today. I still love each of things I listed but the passion is just either gone, not as strong or no longer creating that intense emotion. I'm not sure why things have changed. I guess I have changed and with change comes a new outlook. I don't want to come across as having a negative outlook because that's not what this is about. I'm just looking for something that I can really focus my interest and that can compell me to action. I want to find that excitement, that enthusiasm and that driving interest.......that PASSION!!

You're so right.
What's interesting to me is how our passions change as we age and live through different experiences in life. It's a constant challenge to find new things to be passionate about but I think that is what makes us better, more well rounded people.
