Passions

No matter how old we are…we all have passion. Remember when you were younger what you really felt passionate about.
Then as life happens and we age, sometimes those passions change or get moved to the back burner for many reasons. Passion may be defined as a strong feeling towards something….it can be anything really. What is your passion? What do you really enjoy doing? What do you have a real strong feeling towards? A person, a sport, a hobby or a place. Sometimes life happens and it takes our focus away from our passion.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. In fact, pursuing your passion and keeping it alive can be very therapeutic and healing.
