I wanted to talk about passion. It seems to be what gives life to the monotonous and is also the impulse that pushes people through the tough times toward a worthy goal or purpose. I have a hard time determining what I'm most passionate about, and yet it's really easy at the same time. I love maps; I love learning about PLACES and what's associated with each place, the people, the culture, nature, the homes, but not the details as much as the entire intake. I like to take in that info and compare. I like to see a place and have it affect me and change my viewpoint; I'm passionate about that. I like to do the same with books, I love to read. I love to share knowledge and help other people learn. I also learned I have to be proactive and less self-centered. Focusing on others will allow me to fulfill my passions and desires by applying them in a good way; I still have to understand this better; but somehow getting to where what I do for others is most important to me is going to make the biggest difference; it's not easy to get there though; it takes effort and proactivity.
As promised (I like the elephants in Africa; random, but cool):
