passion’s call (A poem)

In your heart lives
a burning desire you can’t deny
constantly on your mind
imagining what it would be like
to fully follow your heart.
Others tell you “it can’t be done”,
“don’t waste your time”,
“why would you?”,
“you have it so good.”
They don’t understand it’s not a choice
it’s a calling.
You don’t want to,
you HAVE to.
Passion is calling you
and when it calls, you answer.
More than an interest,
more than a curiosity,
more than “the next thing,”
your passion is a calling from a Higher Power
guiding you through your heart.
Committing to your passion should be easy.
It’s calling you,
it lights you up,
it’s a source of abundant joy,
but human nature wants to play it safe
and stay comfortable.
But, when passion calls you
you answer and listen.
Passion will manifest to different levels
for each individual.
It might be
career,
hobby,
side hustle,
or nothing more than an outlet.
You won’t know what your passion will grow to be
until you allow it to become a part of your life.
Regardless of how big it becomes
the amount of joy it will bring
will be unmatched.
We all need…nah
we all deserve to have passion in our lives.
If you are open to and paying attention
it will call you
directly through your heart
and when it calls
answer and follow its lead.

See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,
