Finding your passion

And so it has been said, 'Find your passion and you never have to work a day in your life."

This may or may not be true.   However, if you spend all your time doing the things that make you feel full and alive, there is little room left for work.

This year has had its share of slow downs.   MS has a way of making you slow down.  You don't have the energy to spend in tasks that drain the energy you do have.

Thinking about the steps you have to take to complete a task requires energy.   More than we realize. 

Thinking about what I have to do, or doing the things
I have to do has provided me opportunity to consider the energy we spend in areas of our lives that do not meet the passion test.

What is passion?  Websters Dictionary defines it as, 'a strong feeling of enthusiasm or excitement for something or about doing something'.

How many times in our days do we do something that creates this feeling in the tasks or activities we choose to take part in?   My gut tells me  - not enough.

Its food for thought.. What makes your creative juices flow, what is something that you do that seems like second nature to you, like breathing. 

Maybe that is where you could choose to spend some of your precious time when nothing is promised for tomorrow.

Enjoy the journey and listen to your inner passion.
