passion

If you have passion for what you do,
the company you keep,
the life you live,
it will be reflected in whatever you create.
Passion is like that,
it springs out,
jumps,
unpredictable and unplanned,
into everything we touch.
If it doesn't,
others know.
Passion can't be faked and it can't be manufactured,
which is why it's so priceless.
