this i believe

I believe in passion. I don’t necessarily mean love, but I mean true dedication and involvement. A family needs a loving mother or father to be the workhorse of the family. Rough times call upon you and it is up to the members to show who they really are and how much they are willing to do for a cause. Odds may be stacked against me or have me backed into a corner, but I feel that I can pull myself out. I strongly believe that through hard work and determination, the passion and emphasis I can put into something can work me or any other out of whatever hole they might be in. Giving up is not an option for a passionate person. In the words of Neil Young, “It is better to burn out than it is to fade away.” I would rather go down swinging than surrender like a coward. If one possess the will to live another day and fight the good fight, they are passionate. If you have something to say, give a damn about what you’re saying! Make a point. This world is full of people that take shortcuts and look for others to lead. I always see my way through with jobs, I feel the need to be involved and speak up when needed. I always have a point to make because I care. This is passion. I feel emotion is the strongest weapon we can use to fight or defend ourselves when under attack. Dedication, hard work, morals are all shaped by passion. We were given this great gift of life so why would you abuse it. You should put all energy forth into being all you can be. Strive to always accomplish work and do it fully. Passion is one of the strongest emotions. It demonstrates our character and who we are and what we believe in. I want to be seen as someone who is strong, a leader, someone always involved and trying to reach their best. I want to be passionate. This I believe.
