Let me ask you something about passion.

27 Sep

Does passion need to be boastful and loud?

Can you be passionate yet maintain a level of calm, cool and modesty? Do your passions need to be shouted from the rooftop whenever you feel them? Must you express your passion(s) the same way to every single person you encounter?

“Hey attention everyone!! I just want to say I love that movie Finding Nemo with every inch of my soul!!! Oh Yeah AND I’m going to BE somebody someday. A famous animator. Just you wait and see!”

Can passion be a soft roar instead of a loud dramatic shout? I definitely think so. Passion is something you feel within. How you choose to express that passion, or even IF you feel like expressing it in the first place, is up to you.

How about you? What do you think?

Webster’s Definition:
4 a (1) : EMOTION <his ruling passion is greed> (2) plural : the emotions as distinguished from reason b : intense, driving, or overmastering feeling or conviction c : an outbreak of anger
5 a : ardent affection : LOVE b : a strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept c : sexual desire d : an object of desire or deep interest

    Hey Kris–well, thank you! I really appreciate it. And seriously…I think it sucks that it is not even 8am yet and you are at work.
