#ThatMomentWhen








What is your passion? 













Passion: any powerful or compelling feeling  or emotion, as love or hate.  A strong or extravagant fondness, enthusiasm, or desire. ~Random House Webster's Unabridged Dictionary, 1997

My passion or passions include softball (my first love), financial literacy, writing, sharing my story, and laughing. Is laughing considered a passion? *shrugs* I consider it a passion. Moving on...
It took me quite a while to figure this out. 

I am not sure I remember the exact moment that I figured it out, but that moment when I figured out that I had realized my passion felt amazing. Life has a way of throwing us curve balls. Life knocks us down. Life comes at us fast. Life goes on. Life hurts. Life heals. Life is worth (there is that word again) LIVING. 

Jefferson said, "with great risk, comes great reward." True statement. Corie says, "everything costs us something." I said that to say that every risk has an outcome, leaving a lasting impression. It all depends on how you see the reward. 
That moment when... you get what you need when you need what you get. 
It's all about how you see it.

It is understandable to experience feelings of doubt, anger, and pain, especially after a terrible loss. Our heartaches are REAL. Only time can help us come to terms with situations that have crushed our hearts, dashed our dreams, and fried our faith. We have to remember that when we pray for the rain, we must deal with the mud too.  
That moment when...we realize that we can go on.
That moment when...we realize what we can live without.
That moment when...I accept that I can't do what you can do and that's okay.
That moment when...we accept what God has for us.

Still don't know what your passion is? What would you do without receiving a paycheck?
Nothing yet??? What is the one thing you cannot imagine not doing?
Then you have found your passion. 

Communicate. Capacity. Character.
