Someone once said, "Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive" I've come to expand this a little with the word 'Passion'. This is because I find that with most people what they have a passion for does indeed make them come alive.
Now some may say, "No Shoot Sherlock, you're just coming to realize this now Angel?" And I would have to admit that for the full affect of the meaning here - yes, I'm just realizing this now in more of a personal way. For most of you that have been reading this site know that I have a passion for photography. What most of you don't know is how I struggle in the area of not only making time for my God given passion, but in accepting that others do appreciate the images I do create. Whether it be doing a friend's family portraits or find some landscapes and creating a mood or feeling to pass along to the viewer. For example the picture to the left is one of my latest creations. It speaks so loud and plainly to me the message that there are some paths that only a few are invited to travel. Kind of like someone else I know. He was given a path that no one else travelled; it was not an easy path, yet He did it for me and everyone else who calls him friend, teacher and Lord.
So today I would like to encourage you to follow your passion and come alive. You will feel so much joy I can't even describe it.
In the mean time study the picture for yourself and see what it speaks to you about. If you feel so led leave me a note and I would be happy to encourage you in your passion as well.
