Passion

The weekend is over and how wonderful it was. Attending a birthday party for 93 year old Bill Anderson was a real highlight. The guests ran from babes in arms to 93 year olds. There were a few tears shed by me when I began thinking of how long I had known Bill (over 50 years), and how wonderful people are. With the Andersons there is always music and a guitar player originally from Mexico caught my attention. In talking to him his passion for making music came out forcefully. How many of us, I wonder, really go after our passion? How many have really allowed themselves to recognize they do have one. There is where the awakening comes. Connecting with a passion can set one's world on fire. Each day becomes an opportunity for wonderful things to happen. I may have discovered my passion late in life, but how glad I am that I truly found it.
