The power of passion

I am wishing for anyone reading this a happy Monday. That may be funny because I try to write something each Monday but persons read what I write throughout the week. I appreciate you taking the time to read.

Passion is the energy and excitement with which a dream is pursued. Pursuing a dream may not be an easy ask especially when it is something that exists in the mind and the task is to make real what at first was an idea or concept. This is especially so if the dream is easily achieved because that is an indication that the dream was not big enough and something bigger and more grand must be pursued.
Passion becomes the driving force that enables the taking on of the impossible, persisting in the face of failures and believing in spite of reality saying otherwise. Passion is the fuel that make dreams into reality because there may be a long time and distance between what began as a thought and putting together something tangible. Passion however provide the focus not to be distracted by the spin off ideas because the dream taking shape also mean the spawning of other ideas and concepts. 
Where some need alcohol and drugs to get high in order to face life passion take a man to a high that exceed a point where these can go without any ill effects. Disappointment is ever present but each failure gives renewed energy because he understand that failures only occur when there is success to be achieved.
A car's engine need gas for it to function, a man's body need food to burn to provide energy and dreams need passion to move them from being just concepts in the mind to man's exclamation "He must have been crazy to have imagined it in the first place."
That is the power and result of passion.
