Passions in life

One thing that I have not focused on much in the past year are the things in my life that I am passionate about.  With everything that has been going on in this crazy year, I have let certain things lay by the wayside.  The routine of every day life in a pandemic can do that to you. But they have never left my mind, they just have not found a way into my daily life...or weekly...or monthly.  Life can do that to you sometimes.  I do not feel badly because of that, I simply have had other things that I needed to focus on.  

Now, I think that it is time for me to rekindle some of my old passions and hopefully find some new ones.  Some will be harder than others, as I am finding myself missing things like theater...both as a performer and an audience member.  Yes, there are virtual platforms for these, I just need to find them.  Cooking is definitely a passion and it is one of the few that I have been able to do during this time.  Also, letter writing is right up there, even though I didn't write as many as I'd hoped.  That will change.

I realize that it may seem selfish to do things for myself but I think that I need it in order to get to where I want to be spiritually, emotionally, physically.  I need to allow myself to enjoy those things that are important to me.  So, we shall see how this goes.  I am looking forward to it.  And now, I think it's time to go exploring.  Enjoy the day and find something you are passionate about!
