passion

A close friend once told me that it's important to have passion in your life. He wasn't talking about the love-you-have-for-a-person kind of passion, but rather passion for something you do.

For example, his passion is music--playing the piano and singing. One of my closest girl friends has a passion for traveling. Another one of my friends has a passion for dancing. My passion used to be music; to be more specific, my passion used to be singing.

But when I had the conversation with my close friend about passion, I realized that I didn't have one. At that time, the importance of singing in my life had diminished - it wasn't my passion anymore.

After a couple of years, it seems that I've finally found my passion, thanks to my internship. I'm glad I've found something to be passionate about again. What is my passion?

Writing.

What's your passion? Let me know - just leave a comment.

"If you want to be successful in a particular field of endeavor, I think perseverance is one of the key qualities. It's very important that you find something that you care about, that you have a deep passion for, because you're going to have to devote a lot of your life to it."

-George Lucas
