Passion stirs excitement and emotion and motivates us to do things we may not otherwise. It encourages me to anticipate a brand new day – a fresh start. As we awaken and open our eyes we have the choice of looking forward to opportunities or challenges that our day will bring. My energy and zest for life are immeasurable because I am passionate about the work I do and the life I live.
