Craving to Write

I wish I could write a book. Sit down, make a plan, come up with a resolution or some form of justification, and be happy with it. But every time I start this thinking process I am dumbfounded by my inability to consciously connect my thoughts to form a coherent point. I circle around this idea of what it would be like if "passion became a necessity" in our lives. We need to do what we love. 

When Passion Becomes Necessity. It's been 3 years and this idea is still stuck in my head. I don't know how to answer this question. OR to prove the point. I don't even fully know what it means to be passionate and what the real idea of necessity is. Over the next little while, as I look inward and read some books about our soul, about love, about ultimate passion for something... I hope I can find just something to bring me to the next stage. Maybe passion doesn't need to be a necessity. Maybe passion just needs to be active.

When passion is active. You see change. You see joy and love. You see people ready to make their day come alive. Their dreams and desires are fulfilled. But what about those who do not know their passion. That don't know what they are searching for. So many Christians end up putting up this idea that God will fill this need. I think that can be true, but really I think it is temporarily true. I think we focus on that initial experience that God has given us and we try to continue to match it. Most people are not in sync with God, but they are aware of his presence. God can help, I think, with the initial finding of what your passion is, but you will never know unless you try something. You have to be willing to give something a shot to see what you enjoy and what you don't. 

Try life and explore all that you can. My mind is filled with contradictions.
