PASSION


Passion -noun 
      strong and barely controllable emotion. "a man of impetuous passion"

Passion is so much more than loving something. The dictionary describes it as being an unbearable love for something. I have been frustrated lately because many people share passions. Obviously my passion is track and field. I've spent a great majority of my life on this passion and there has not been one single hard running workout or failed competition when I asked myself if it was really my passion. 

I believe if something is your passion you will enjoy it in the highs and the lows. Win or lose. Glory or shame. However, as of late people have been claiming a passion for something when it is going good for them. Well, that's convenient. Yet when they go through the rough patches they hate everything about their so-called passion. it gets in the way of the other good things in their life. 

I have hope that my passion will always remain consistent and the same.
