Today I was told that I have passion. And I think that's why I get hurt so easily yet I also think it's why I enjoy life so fully. A lot of the time, most of the time, passion is misinterpreted. It gets misinterpreted and people label you as a freak, but it's passion all the same. Being passionate about everything can really open you up to getting hurt because you are putting yourself out there and letting others know what you truly care about, but I personally think that it is much more worth it to take that risk than to suffer in silence and hide how you truly fear. Without passion nothing can change. We live in a world full of empty words and when we live with passion our words become full of meaning. And it can be intimidating to be different. It's hard to stand against something that is so big and powerful, but if we don't then we are letting it happen and just become part of the problem. We need to be part of the solution.
I also believe that some people misinterpret anger for passion. Anger is a type of passion, but it can get destructive if not handled carefully. Anger clouds the vision and makes it all too easy to veer off into the realm of hate. Don't mistake anger for passion it will only lead to destruction.
There is so much fun in being passionate in everything you do. It takes the humdrum out of the day and defies the mundane. So let's continue to be passionate about all we do and take that risk.
Allons-y!
