Passion: Stand for Something

Follow your passion, and success will follow you. ~Arthur Buddhold

Were the passionate visible, all we would go blind. ~Jareb Teague

Don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. ~Harold Whitman

Renew your passions daily. ~Abbe Yeux-verdi

The most beautiful make-up of a woman is passion. But cosmetics are easier to buy. ~Yves Saint Laurent

Without passion man is a mere latent force and possibility, like the flint which awaits the shock of the iron before it can give forth its spark. ~Amiel, Journal, 17 December 1856

But this had been a sin of passion, not of principle, nor even purpose. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet Letter

Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion, history, romance and art would be useless. ~Honoré de Balzac

I am sure you have heard the old adage: If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything...well, people its the truth! Have a little passion. I do not care what you are passionate about, if your passion is the polar opposite of mine, whateva....just be passionate about something! The most unattractive quality is lack of passion. Livelihood thrives on passion. If you are a total wallflower in every aspect, you are kind of useless to me and society! for that matter. Stand for something, or fall and cry about it- but go cry in the corner where you belong!

Your passion is........?

    My passions are: decent wines, tanning (no lectures, please), shoes, well behaved kids, and finding uncensored naked celebrity pics online before they're removed. :)
