Give it a real thought. What are you passionate about?

QUOTE
pasâ€Â§sion  /ˈpæÊƒÃ‰™n/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[pash-uhn] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun
[SPECIFICALLY]
1. any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling, as love or hate.
4. an instance or experience of strong love or sexual desire.
6. a strong or extravagant fondness, enthusiasm, or desire for anything: a passion for music.
7. the object of such a fondness or desire: Accuracy became a passion with him.
8. an outburst of strong emotion or feeling: He suddenly broke into a passion of bitter words.
9. violent anger.
10. the state of being acted upon or affected by something external, esp. something alien to one's nature or one's customary behavior (contrasted with action).


Politics? In what way? I feel like if you are truely passionate about something you seek out information, activity that involves, includes, or works towards the thing. Culture? Social Inequality? Playing sports?

What is your definition for "passion"? Is anything excluded from being able to be passionate about? For example can one of your passions just be having a good time?

How important is it for someone to be passionate about things? In a relationship sense is this something you seek out in others or are you indifferent?

passionate about learning

passionate about anything concerning my brother... mainly trying to educate people on his illness and helping my family make sure that he will always be safe

passionate about being the best at a given task by perfecting the art of it


i have no real hobbies at all. I wish I was a dancer or singer or song composer or something.....none of that is me though. passion for me is what i have strong feelings towards and perhaps devote my life to. I have the strongest feelings ever for my brother...its like he is my own son. Big reason why I dont ever want to have kids of my own. I cant imagine being more passionate about something... I think it would hurt
