Passion

What would the world be like without passion? Relationships would be boring and uninteresting; sporting events would be lacklustre; even actors in a stage play would be robotic and unreal. Love would not be love if it is devoid of passion.

The best love songs, the most inspiring poems, and the best selling self-help papperbacks all share one thing in common; a rare passion that sells the message of the author.

Often this passion and emotional release can be found in the midst of a crowd:

Normally shy individuals scream and cheer for their sports team till they are hoarse. A sports arena full of strangers will work in unison to produce the “wave” to cheer on their team to victory. A preacher will shout, jump, and even cry to get across his impassioned plea to the congregation. A hockey goon will drop his gloves to get his team into it.

Some closing thoughts on Passion:

Passion is founded on conviction.
Passion needs an outlet.
Passion is contagious.
Passion is needed to power a cause.
Passion is an essential part of our human makeup.
