In addition to the fact that I’ve gotten a number of cheers on this “Thing,” I’m quite sure that passionate living is the life for me. “Dispassionate living” makes me feel tired, grumpy, and surprisingly out-of-control. Many people may equate “passionate living” with keeping yourself so busy that you end up letting things slip through the cracks, but I find it’s the opposite. When I live passionately, I’m engaged with myself, the world around me, and with making progress on the things that are important to me. At the end of the day I may feel tired either way, but one is a “blah” tired and the other is an “ah” tired.
Being the introverted “type B” person that I am, “living passionately” may seem less “passionate” from how other, more driven folks live it, but still I know it’s the life for me!
