But how do we become a passionate person?
How can we develop a poised, passionate spirit?
Heald says,
'Unfortunately, we can't just decide,
''I will now be a passionate woman(okay, or 'MAN' as well.''
Mull over these questions,
Maybe write your answers somewhere:
What do I get excited about?
Why do I get up in the morning?
What social concerns or causes stir my passion?
In what aspects of my life do I want to grow?
What have I always wanted to do?
*
Passion must be in balance.
When a person is overtly passionate,
She is too eager,
Too forceful,
And extreme in her beliefs.
She's driven by selfishness
Which demands for her gain
At the cost of everyone.
So,
Balance, balance.
*
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention
Of arriving safely
In an attractive and well preserved body,
But rather a skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke,
Thoroughly used up,
Totally worn out,
And loudly proclaiming,
'Wow!
What a Ride!'
