Focus your passion

Passion

“So these are the top three craziest things they did for SUJU… for the positive…”

My lunch buddies A and T were talking about fan obsessions toward this Korean boy band whom A is also a fan of. On top of the three “positive obsessions” she mentioned, she also enumerated three of the crazy bad things anti-fans did to the boy band, in detail. Yes, she really is a fan.

I was listening quietly, not being a fan of Koreans or boy bands in general. But I did have my share of “slight obsessions” so somehow I know the feeling.

The Twilight Saga was one of the first things I ever went crazy about so far as to buy all the books in the series in hardbound, the special edition journals, the soundtrack and everything else Twilight. I watched the movie twice in the theater and a couple more times in DVD. But that’s just a slight addiction compared to other hard core fans who were and continue to be far more devoted than I was.

It just dawned on me how every person has this enormous capacity to be passionate about something or someone. This sort of craziness is inborn in everyone, waiting to be triggered by the right purpose at the right time.

Imagine what could happen if you could focus that crazy passion to something you’ve always dreamed to achieve in your life.

Now I feel like blogging again

There’s something about changing my blog’s look that gives me a natural high. It’s the same feeling I get every time I get a fresh new journal.

There’s something so magical about flipping through the empty pages and smelling the fresh paper. You almost feel like you don’t want to write anymore and just hold the journal in your hands.

But I must write. I want to write.

So I finally forced myself to stop tweaking this blog’s design and begin typing this post.

I’ve been neglecting this blog for quite sometime. Kernan even asked me why I rarely update this blog.

I always tell myself to just write and let the words flow. But sometimes, I still get stumped. Or I feel like writing something but think it’s not perfect or significant enough.

I know it’s the writing gremlin talking.

I really should listen and connect with my writing muse more often.

Sometimes the days get too predictable and ordinary, I forget that there’s this amazing dimension of life I can explore anytime. A place where I can draw my writing inspiration from.

And so here I am blogging again.

I promise myself, I’ll do this more often.
