This is why finding what we love, though it may take years, is building a life of passion. For what makes you come alive can keep you alive, whether you are paid well for it or not. And beyond the fashion of the job market, a life of passion makes us a healthy cell in the body of the world.

Finding what we truly love to do is a crucial journey that can take years, yet it ultimately leads to a life filled with passion and purpose. Engaging in activities that ignite our enthusiasm not only sustains us emotionally and physically but also enriches our existence, regardless of financial rewards. This pursuit of passion can profoundly enhance our overall well-being.

Moreover, living a life driven by passion contributes positively to the broader community. We become valuable, healthy parts of the world when we embrace what makes us come alive. Mark Nepo emphasizes that fostering our passions is essential to being fully present and making meaningful contributions to the lives of others.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
