We do not struggle or fight for life because here we are already dead.

The very core of who we are is being slowly drained. Passion is tainted and losing its meaning. How can we know the meaning of a word that is thrown around lust and the "it's all about me" slogan we are teaching one another. We are only bored with a lack of appreciation. The word passion seems something too far away to grasp anymore. When we are always onto the next thing, there is no desire for the present. It is the present that we are meant to live and it is here that we are meant to be filled with passion and joy. When it is all about me (and it is so often) we are looking for something to give us passion rather then finding it in what have already been given. Let us take a step back and stop paying attention to all the signs thrown in our faces that tell us how to live. Instead may we quiet the noise and appreciate the signs that point to love and selflessness. It is in love that we can truly live a life filled with passion.

"Discover the truth that saves you. The key to joy, to growth, to passion isn't hiding from you." (We're just looking in the wrong places)
