Burning Passion

Many of us have a passion in life. It is something we hold dear in our lives and commited to achieving it. Some of us have a passion for playing sports and taking it to the next level..others have a passion for art and really putting it up at a gallery. What is your passion?


Many years ago while growing up in Los angeles, I loved watching the LA marathon and seeing a bunch of people run not just to win the race but to complete it. When I was in junior high and high school, we ran a mile run and sometimes more than that. I always loved running and never got involved in cross country in school. I been playing Sims for quite sometime and there was a message in that game that really hit me hard. The message was if I dont keep my social meter up, I would not be happy. I denied myself the joy of getting involved in some type of activity. So yesterday I bought two pairs of running shoes and one pair of walking shoes. Tomorrow I am going to buy a heart monitor and distance watch so I can train my running. The shoe store has this running club which I want to join and it is for all level runners. These people get involved in alot of social activites and I want to be a part of it. My passion then is to get back to running and being commited to get in shape and having a balanced life. I hope that all of you have a passion that drives you to go out there do something you always wanted to get involved with.

Nature is my passion. I enjoy the outdoors and love the beauty of god's creations. Ironic for someone who's pretty much spent his whole life in a city.:rolleyes: :cool:

My passion is travelling. I use every occasion I have to travel. I can travel with a backpack or with all the stuff I have the right to, depending on the kind of trip I am going on. I enjoy travelling alone, but I reserve this to safer countries and regions.

I have been to all continents, except Oceania. I've learned to adapt to food, climate, customs. I've learned to respect different cultures and to be flexible. I've also learned that this planet is so rich, places are so different, nature is fragile, men are all the same.
I've also learned that I was very lucky to be born in a peaceful place, where nature is such a gift and people are so warm. The more I travel, the more I love my country and my hometown!
