Oh god, its English class all over again where all the kids go "oooh, so deep!" Hahaha, sorry, just the kids make me want to go stab a pencil through their eyes...
Anywho, I think without passion, everything would get a whole lot simpler... like, we'd be freakin' cave men, it'd be awesome.

Great Bill and Ted reference, and like always, a great comment.

Passion is a constant strong trait. I equate it with focus and getting things done. Vision is necessary, but without passion it's noting but an idle goal never to be finished or done to the level it needs to be. I know people who seem very one or the other, and the ones who exemplify the passionate action seem to move through life happier. People who rely completely on vision seem constantly let down.

Of coarse I think it's best to have both at complementary levels. That's how I try to, and I think at a level every congius being have a bit of both. Some just let one pull harder than the other. It's all about being happy and not screwing anyone over. Be excellent to each other

awesome fucking battle! you got me thinking like crazy on this one!!!! hmm.... well passion is hard to follow. it seems like there are a bunch of lifes little tests trying to tear you away from your passion and sometimes you have no choice but to abandon a passionate goal. that can be a heartbreaking and devastating experience. but if you are lucky enough to live with that passion than cheers to you. but ive went through all that mess and never really recovered.

on the other hand, i have visions of what i want to accomplish, what i want to be, and where i want to be in life. but my personality makes it hard for me to stick to one vision, resulting in constant changes in goals and visions.

come to think of it, thats what happens with my passions too! FUCK! i voted wrong. i shouldnt have voted at all.

my life is one giant clusterfucked paradox.

thanks lilac for elping me ralize that. gives me some clarity.

kind of... You can have passion without vision. If you are lucky enough to have both...well then ROCK ON!

Yes, but you have to have a vision that you are passionate about so it works both ways :)
