Lately, I've been challenged by the book Too Small to Ignore by Wess Stafford. On page 256, Stafford states:

"Every human being needs a cause in life, a passion. If you don't have something in your life that can make your heart pound, that can move you either to tears of joy or tears of sorrow in about thirty seconds, then my friend, you are not fully alive. Life is too precious to go on in such a half-awake condition. You can do better. You deserve better."

So how about you? Have you discovered what it is like to live a life fueled by passion? What cause makes you feel like shouting to the world "Open your eyes and see this!"?

For me, it is abused, neglected or orphaned children. Those that are starving- physically and spiritually. Those who are in need of kindness, mercy and compassion.
