What is it? It is the ability to appreciate the beauty of an object that is not necessarily understood by everyone. I find that by being able to be passionate about a numerous amount of things enables me to find happiness in life in general. For many people i talk to, sometimes they struggle in discussing whatever it is in life they are passionate about. Some even answer "...tv?" Then they shrug and go about their daily routines. But i feel in order to be passionate one has to undergo an educational process in which they can achieve a foundation of true understanding. It explains the difference between someone who falls asleep during an opera compared to someone that is moved to tears by it. Being passionate requires a knowledge and inner emotion that draws attention from the observer to its most intimate detail. That is what I think is so beautiful about passion.
Personally, I'm passionate about so many different things. Mostly related to the arts since I'm so visually and aurally connected to everything around me. I was on my way to class when the rain was pouring. In a smart situation I wouldn't have gone to class since I'm already sick and we were only watching a movie, but a very important paper was due. Through the cold and wetness I discovered something beautiful, the pavements became reflections, literally. The puddles created a mirror when i walked and right there and then i wish i had my camera. It reminded me of this experimental film done by a Dutch director way early in the day (man i forgot his name) who simply captured footage of a rainstorm in different angles and locations. But it is beautiful in the fact that that moment in time will never occur again. Wow, i love art. I love my passion for art.
