Passion-less


I was working on my March Madness brackets yesterday when I came face to face with my alter-ego. He looked upon me and asked, "where did all your passion go?" That is a good question; where is my passion? My life seems life-'less' right now, work, home, run, sleep, eat, work, etc... at one point in life I had a passion for snow boarding, SCUBA diving, even running; but those flames have slowly dwindled and darkness has fallen over them. Connecting all this back to March Madness; basketball has always been a constant in my life since the 5th grade, it has been my true passion yet I have not played in the last few months. I can't even remember the last time I was in a pick-up game. Do all passions die? Does nothing last a life-time? I need a spark, a log, some coals, a little wind, anything to help me bring my passions back.

PS: I have two brackets running; I have Texas in one and Memphis in the other, going all the way (yes, I stayed away from Florida, Ohio, and UCLA...)

Hehe, this may sound extra corny, but perhaps all your passion got transferred to Nini?? Muahaha
You know, I don't think you should be saddened nor worried about this. In my opinion, constance outweighs passion. It's not as if you've stopped liking the things you listed. They still give you pleasure when you do them, right? From one monkey to another, when you get bored, just fling poo.
