    Love it. Too true.
    Very appro­priate for Valentine’s Day too.

    Pas­sion is more an over-used word such that it has lost (or is losing) its ori­gi­nal mea­ning inside the meaning-draining mar­ke­ting sphere.
    Pas­sion is your res­ponse when your child is hurt or suc­ceeds in life. Pas­sion is how you feel when the great love of tour life asks you to leave. Pas­sion is *not* when your com­pany pro­du­ces a bet­ter PC, or fibre optic cable.
    Pas­sion is *not* how you feel when you do a good job for a cus­to­mer — that is self-rewarding, con­fi­dence, enthu­siasm, plea­sure. It is not pas­sion, my friend.
    If it’s pas­sion, then the world is a dreary and dis­con­so­late place indeed, and Venice is a dreary suburb surroun­ded by mud.
    Yay Hugh! Love is hard. Pas­sion is when your heart aches and your eyes are filled with tears.
