Being Passionate

For those of you who personally know me, you know I love my car. Sounds silly to most, but I have always enjoyed cars. My dad was a car salesman and as a small child I could tell you the make of most all cars on the road. We spend so much of our life in them I think it’s important to drive something you enjoy. For example, I love a Volkswagen Beetle. I have had four of them over the years. They are coming out with electric Volkswagens soon. I really wish they would bring the beetle back. If they do, don’t be surprised if you see me with one someday.

But… in the meantime, I’m loving my Tesla! What an amazing automobile. Yes it has no engine, so very quiet. Fast as a bullet. I haven’t been to the gas station in 3 years or had to get my car serviced. I can drive in HOV lane alone and not pay to take the express lanes. It is technology driven, but then again so am I. Also loving having no emissions. I’m not a big fan of large gas guzzling cars and think they are not good for our environment.

Yes, I’m a huge Elon Musk fan. I think he and the late Steve Jobs are brilliant. They have changed technology and our driving experience. Everywhere I go I get a lot of questions on my car. Folks really are curious and have no idea how electric cars work. I’m looking forward to solar energy getting more widespread so we can rely on the sun for energy.

I’m such a passionate person that I don’t want to like my computer, I want to love it. I don’t want to like my car, I want to love it. I don’t want a coffeemaker I like, I want one I love. The same goes with most things in my life. I would rather have fewer things I love, than a lot of things I don’t.

I’m equally passionate about most things in my life including my family, my friends and my Christ. If you are my family or friend you mean the world to me. I couldn’t do life without my Christ. He is closer than a brother and never lets me down. I’m praising God for the passion he has put in me. What are you passionate about?
