Passionate about that!?

Are you passionately doing something you used to hate to do?

I am. About two things - trimming horse hooves and running.

Hooves really? I hated the idea of trimming them. It truely is an art and I didn't want to be responsible for hurting my horses. After all - No hoof, no horse. So I'm on the path of learning with them. My horses have been patient and forgiving. And now I really do care about the horses hoof. Even though I get headaches thinking about it all sometimes. I guess that must come from being passionate. :)

Also I've just finished runing a 1/4th of a mile. Big deal, you say. People run marathons all the time.

Yeah, well they don't get the 'fish out of water' feeling I get from exercise enduced asthma. I really try to get beyond the 1/4th mile mark. I just can't.

Does that mean I won't???

And that seems to be the problem with my life as a whole right now. I'm struggling with what dreams are the right ones to pursue. I don't believe in the word impossible. Never have, never will. I believe we have to try for things that we think are impossible and be willing to fail with the mindset that 'it's not right for us at this time or our life as a whole and we need to pursue what is'.

But sometimes that sounds a lot like failing. I guess it's the 'accomplish the dare' in me.

I will never be great at singing, running, sewing, medical terms, math etc. I can get better and learn to enjoy myself doing it but it's not something I should make a life purpose/career out of.

I'm afraid of heights but will climb if dared. Honestly, I think that's stupid of me...

I love working with farm animals, riding, educating people about where our food comes from, promoting 4-H, photography, writing, and talking about God (and belive me when I say I will talk about anything religious).

I can be good at cooking, crocheting, brainstorming, organization, gardening etc.

So what's worth working at? Should you really pursue something that doesn't interest you?
I don't think so. To be a world changer you have to be a driven passionate person about something. You have to have a vision. Start now. Start young. And don't wait until you're 50 to realize that - though better late than never.

And if your bank account hates you so what. Not everyone needs to be a millionare.
