:Live your Truth:

Passion is on the top on my list for the most beautiful things in the world. It is intangible. Like many of the best things in life, passion is priceless. Passion develops from a deep sense of love for a greater purpose. The expression of such unconditional love for something greater is so inspirational. 

Inspiration. It's a drug. I'm an inspiration junkie. i LOVE to be inspired. Inspiration is often the feeling we associate with passion. Think of the last time someone inspired you. Why were you inspired? What did this person say or do to inspire you? Passion doesn't hide. It shines brighter than any star in the sky. 

What are you passionate about? I encourage you to make a list of 10 things you are passionate about. Passion can be anything. Can't think of 10? Start with what lights you up. What do you love. 

Here's mine - in no specific order!

1. Yoga
2. Making a difference in the world - there's so much love and beauty to spread.
3. The outdoors - nature can cure damn near anything. Be with it. 
4. Living a healthy and balanced life. Self-care. We only have one chance in this world - make it last. 
5. Connection - to friends - to family - to strangers - to inspiring leaders - we are all connected in one way or another. Discover your connection and hold on to it. Cherish it. It's a beautiful thing to be part of something big. 
6. Music - such a beautiful art that lights me up. I don't own a TV. Music allllll day!
7. Constant self-improvement. Learn to love yourself. Love your assets. Love what you hate about you. You have the choice to be better than you were yesterday. Don't be afraid to let go. 
8. Love. When you think of love, what do you think of? A person? A thing you love? Family? Love is so powerful in action.
9. Expression. In any form. Yoga. Writing. Snowboarding. It's all expression. There's something empowering about the ability to express yourself in so many different ways. Put out what you want back. Live your truth. 
10. Life. There's so many opportunities in the world. So many truths. So many falsities. Discover and conquer your truth. Express it. Love it. Be it. 

When expressed, passion brings so much light and love to the world. Be part of something beautiful. Whatever that means for you. Be passionate. Be truthful. Just be you. You are beautiful just the way you are. 

Be bold, be brilliant, be beautiful.
