Passion: as many definitions as the
universe is deep and wide, as many
interpretations, flavors, textures
and shadows.
Passion – an intense jolt, a rolling wave,
the quietest calm of soulful creation.
Passion is you, passion is me,
passion is we.

“Without passion man is a mere latent force
and possibility, like the flint which awaits the
shock of the iron before it can give
forth its spark.”
Henri Frederic Amiel

Together, we stand, collectively and separately
becoming more intimate with the concepts of
centered, whole BE-ing ness.
I can not imagine a more exciting place to be than
in exactly this encounter in exactly this moment
engaging with exactly this group of people.
Each one of us has responded to a sacred call and
arrived in this exact point in time.
It feels foolish for me to even try to pretend
I know it all on such a topic, as Frederico Fellini
reminds us, “There is no end. There is no beginning.
There is only the infinite passion of life.”
The infinity symbol is one which touches
me deeply due to its simplicity and instant
recognition. It stands for so much and I
relate to it in so many ways.
Look within and around you now, to see
it, to feel it.
The infinite passion – the figure eight – within
each breath, in and out.
Even and equal. Whole and complete.
It is just like you are, this infinite passion.
The infinite passion – in your body – your
shoulders to your waist, across and down
to your hips and around and up again.
Curvy and straight. Perfect creation.
The infinite passion – in your eyes, from one,
across the bridge of your nose, and back again.
Seeing, interpreting, holding, connecting.
The infinite passion.
You. Me. We.
That word: passion. Hold in your center
an experience of passion, as you
define it.
See that experience and playfully
experiment to encapsulate that
passion-feeling in one word.
Here are some which will, perhaps spark
one for you, in you, as you breathe
in that passion experience.
You. Me. We.
Zeal. Fire. Joy. Zest. Heat. Urge.
Yen. Love.
You. Me. We.
Henri Frederic Amiel reaches from
The past to give us a charge today –
an assignment so to speak – to give
forth our spark of passion, to move
our spark of passion from latency
to full expression – here, together,
and where you are, still together.
You. Me. We.
Be open to the callings in your
heart to how this will take form,
how this may manifest.
Zeal. Fire. Joy. Zest. Heat. Urge.
Yen. Love.
You. Me. We.
