Passion

I had an Alexander Technique lesson yesterday, and as I was driving up I was stricken with envy of my two friends I'm doing it with.  The teacher, of course, has her passion in teaching Alexander Technique.  My other friend has found her passion with a healing thing called Quantum Biofeedback.  And me?   Um....passionless, except for knitting.  And where does that get me in the world?  And why should I care if I'm not creating world peace with my knitting?   

  I've always liked the quote from Mahatma Gandhi - "Be the change you want to see in the world".   Maybe the challenge for myself is to really embrace that at my own microscopic little level of home and hearth.  Knit, with love, beautiful clothes for people to wear.  Make, with love, beautiful soap for people to use.  Garden, with love, so that my family has good food to eat in the summer and through the winter.   Don't sweat over not having a large passion.  Enjoy and embrace all the small passions that I pursue every day.

 

as long as that doesn't include having to wash the floor every day!!!

happy days everyone :)
