Discovering Your Passion

I want to share something with everyone that I'm really excited about. It concerns my writing.

I've always enjoyed writing, but over the past two years, I seem to be enjoying it more and more. I believe I've finally discovered my passion in life. Actually, I would say, it's my second passion. My family will always be the thing I am most passionate about. My writing is more of a personal passion that I am getting more and more enthusiastic about.

A couple of years ago, I had some articles published in our local newspaper which was quite exciting and thrilling. This year, a card verse I wrote was chosen for the official 2009 Loveland Valentine card which was definitely thrilling. These events motivated me to pursue some online publishing options.

Most recently, I signed up with a writing site called Associated Content. I submitted my first article last week and found out a few days ago that they wanted to publish it. Needless to say, I'm quite excited about it.

Let me know what you think. I’m submitting more articles and will update you if any more get published.

Now back to the subject of passion.

Take some time to think about what your passion might be. Make a list of things you like to do and are enthusiastic about. Think about what gives you the most joy in your life. Narrow down your list to two or three things and you just might discover your passion. Then do something about it. Make it your hobby or even your life's work. In other words, follow your passion!
