Ignoring your passion is like dying a slow death...Passion whispers to you through your feelings, beckoning you toward your highest good.

You will triumph.

I live inside God's dream for me. I don't try to tell God what I'm supposed to do. . . God can dream a bigger dream for you than you can dream for yourself.
