One must have passion to proceed forward or life or count their life un-lived. This does not happen purely by being excited, gleeful, scared, and all over kinds of over-emotional all day. That’s being actively manic-depressive. A balance of passion and dedication creates integrity to one’s being as their words and actions speak truer and ring farther through time and space. To not have this is normal, because doing so is difficult. However it is the kind of tricky that one feels proud and vibrant as they dodge and invent. The fun kind.
In order to understand yourself as true one must accept the now, let go of the past and understand the future is not real without this here. To be passionate one must allow themselves the space despite their fears and real dangers, to try and thrive at what speaks to their deepest and vibrants of hearts. Something calls deeper and speaks without words or cues deep inside someone. Emotion is lit at all times but a person must allow themselves the freedom then create the pursuit to waft that flame into a full blown phoenix. And once this mountain is seen as a slide, then you’ve got to start the work.
The best people make hard toil look effortless and beautiful. Reason for this is they have learned to enjoy it. The chaos does not daunt them for they have chosen it and named it their friend, their steed, their love, their joy. But it will always seem scary to the newcomer. Admitting to yourself that fear is simply excitement with a chance of damage is a mindfuck. Grasping strongly that you will be better and that its all up to you whether it is hard or fun, is the mind-orgasm so intense that it’s scary.
So work hard but fret not. The passion one seeks is deep within and always available. The work in front of you is scary now, but also malleable instantly. Write out goals until you feel lit and true. Make a plan of action, figure out the steps and then imagine a way they could be fun. Will it to be an enjoyable ride as this is life, it is real and a sea of bliss is within us just waiting for us to unleash it.
