Passion, it lies in all of us, sleeping... waiting... and though unwanted... unbidden... it will stir... open its jaws and howl. It speaks to us... guides us... passion rules us all, and we obey.

If we could live without passion maybe we'd know some kind of peace... but we would be hollow... Empty rooms shuttered and dank. Without passion we'd be truly dead.
Joss Whedon

If you have passion for trees, run and hug them. You have passion for music, join in the song. You have a passion for writing, pen it down. You have a passion for life itself, happily live along. The pressures of modern times, clocks ticking past; where is there room to house our passions? We are all but puppets tuned to a programme and conditioned to fill up roles already created for us. Every day passes by and we rush to reach the targets they set for us. We eat, we drink, we shop, our passions fast asleep within our all so busy selves. Look within yourself, what is it that gives you the uttermost joy, the release of all locked energies, you have long left behind?! Do not ignore the things you are passionate about. Create for such things a vent, a way of much needed expression.
