Passion!


http://www.becomingwhoyouare.net/

Every morning on my way to work I pass a newspaper seller.  This isn't your ordinary newspaper seller.  This guy is different in an extraordinary way.  He has a passion for selling his newspapers every morning.  It is amazing to watch him.  He greets every car and asks if you are "Sharp".  You are rewarded with a huge smile if you give him the thumbs up!  I love the sparkle in his eye and the bounce in his step.  His whole being is in selling his papers.  This amazes me.  It is my tonic for the day.

Society has a lot of rules of what we need to have in order for us to be happy.  Every morning when I watch this man, I just realise that you create your own happiness.  It is up to you to make your life your passion.  We have to get up in the morning and work or do what ever we have to for the day.  I just think that it would be much more fun if we put our whole being into what we are busy doing and enjoy every moment of it.

Enjoy sitting in traffic, as this is a time to pray and sing a long to your favourite songs. 
Enjoy making someone a cup of coffee, as you lighten up their day.
Enjoy the laughter and noise of children, as this reminds us how much fun we can have if we let the child inside of us out from time to time.

Just find the little things in your day to enjoy and be happy about!  It is easy once you find your passion...

"Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be." Abraham Lincoln

  1. Baie mooi. Laat mens dink hoe anders jy jou dag kan maak deur hierdie klein dingetjies raak te sien en als wat jy doen met passie te doen en die lekker daarin te probeer raaksien.
