The following text was copied from "O" The Oprah Magazine:
Go for it !!!
Find the passion to get what you really want.
A Second Chance
At Life ... "An
old dream, a new passion -- going after it may take nerves of steel, but the reward is
a pearl beyond price.
The
first truth about second chances, they rarely happen by chance."
Quote by: Katherine Russell Rich
It's that surge of spirit that helps you know -- pursue -- what you really
want out of life. When you are willing to wrestle with the ultimate
question, [what do I want?] you will arrive at some very unexpected
answers. When you feel a burst of energy or excitement, stop a moment
and see what got your attention; that's your passion talking. If you
think you lack passion, look at it another way: What activity, when
you're doing it, makes time fly? Passion brings out our best, and
worst. When you're being assaulted by negative feelings e.g.
rage, jealously, envy, fear, etc., try not to act till the storm has passed.
Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what
excites you, passion is contagious. Hang out with people who
dive into life. Their enthusiasm may prompt you to find out what turns
you on, what makes you feel alive. Be a woman on a mission. Find
an organization or cause you believe in wholeheartedly, and commit time,
energy and ingenuity to it.
"Be still when you have nothing to say. When genuine
passion moves you, say what
you've got to say, and say it hot." Quote by: D.H.
Lawrence, British writer
"Nothing great in the world has been accomplished without
passion."
Quote by: Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, German Philosopher
"The worst sin, perhaps the only sin passion can commit, is to be
joyless"
Quote by: Dorothy L. Sayers, British writer
"Blaze with the fire that is never extinguished" Quote by: Luisa Sigea, Portuguese scholar
"It is the soul's duty to be loyal to its own desires. It must
abandon itself to its master
passion" Quote by: Rebecca West
"There was a disturbance in my heart, a voice that spoke there and
said, I want, I want. I
want ! It happened every afternoon, and when I tried to
suppress it, it got even stronger"
Quote by: Saul Bellow
"Passion kept one fully in the present, so that time became a
series of mutually
exclusive 'nows' " Quote by: Sue Halpern
"Waste no more time talking about great souls and how they should
be. Become one
yourself" Quote by: Marcus
Aurelius
What Passion haven't you indulged recently? Devote time today
to something you're wild about: golf, dancing, skiing, cooking, making
art ... making love.
