I was digging through my regular internet forums lately, and realized just how much the internet has removed physical boundries. I watch dance troupes from Korea. Talk to computer modders from Israel, the UK, Australia, and more. Share car information with people in South America. Talk about music to people all over the world.
Some of these friends I’d call “acquaintances” because I’ve never actually met them in person. Some of them I’ve only met once, but I talk to on a weekly basis, and I know more about their lives than I know about my own extended family. Why is that?
It’s because we share some sort of passion. And life is all about passion. What makes you passionate? What are you willing to sacrifice for? What do people say you eat, sleep, and breathe for? Who are you most readily associated with? What about people that don’t know you personally? What part of you do they see first?
Find your passions. Pursue them. Chase them. Don’t be afraid to dream about them. They define who you are.
