Passion is sometimes viewed as lust, urgency, insistence on having what you want.
However, this false passion is moving you away from the real power of True passion.
True passion is to giving everything you are and everything you have for what has meaning.
When you really care, you are willing to listen softly to the inner calling of your Soul.
Spirit's messages are gentle and sweet.
The ego's passion is strong and demanding.
Spirit's calling is easy and light.
The ego's urges are pushy and extreme.
Spirit's caring is subtle, quiet and often anonymous.
Egoic caring is often direct, obnoxious and showy.
Ask yourself, "Are you willing to die for what you love?" This is the ego.
Are you willing to live abundantly for what you love? This is Spirit.
Are you willing to let go of your neediness for the sake of service and caring?
Or are you intent on satisfying your needs, your timing, your requirements?
Life is filled with opportunities to care deeply, love purely and give generously.
First, passionately care for your whole Self, your Essential Self, your Real Purpose.
Why not?
Loving you,
