I have interests, I have things that concern me, I have causes that I feel are worthwhile.........but they all fall short of my definition of passion.........I might be too logical to be passionate......or maybe too lazy.

The only thing I am passionate about is love, and those stories are too sad to write because love always ends either because one died or one started hating the other or whatever.  So, NO!  Lol.

Here is the famous story that Hemingway wrote when he was dared to write the shortest story ever:  For sale: baby shoes--never used.

I'm passionate about my family and my new marriage.  

Congratulations on your new marriage, Carrie.

Thanks, it has been almost 2 years, but it still seems very new to me.

May never grow old , happy for ya ...

i'm passionate about music and the words that go along with it .. some songs are just a bunch of sounds thrown together that sounds good and there's nothin wrong with that .. but i usually prefer a song where the writer is tryin to convey somethin .. like an author of a story a songwriter can convey a thought or an emotion or memory with a 3 minute song that an author of a book can't do with 300 pages sometimes .. but its not an easy thing to do .. some songs are just ditty's .. and there's nothin wrong with them . but when you add a real story or emotion to the music it lends another level to it .. for instance , here's warren zevon doin a song about heartache . but he does it in a way that reminds you of he haw ..on one level its almost funny .. and he has dwight yokum singin the backround vocals and man does it sound like oh where oh where are you tonight .. but it goes much deeper than that .. and that telecaster in the middle is just sheer beauty .. and the pedal steel sounds like its actually cryin .. it sounds like somethin merle haggard would do .. bein backed up by the band .. and while the words are pretty sparse for somethin warren usually writes its just right for this song ..

When I was young 
The sky was filled with stars
I watched them burn out one by one 
I've had my share
Of disappointing love affairs
And I'm no stranger to disillusionment 
Little darlin' 
If you need a helping hand 
If you need someone 
You can count on me 
And I will understand

Heartache spoken here
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears 
So come on down, we'll talk about it 
Heartache spoken here 
Heartache spoken here 
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears
So come on down we'll talk about it 
Heartache spoken here

A house of cards 
A castle made of sand 
Don't take much to blow away 
Rows and rows 
Of broken hearts and broken homes
So much sadness, you see it every day 
Little darlin' If you need a helping hand
If you need someone 
You can count on me 
And I will understand

Heartache spoken here 
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears 
So come on down, we'll talk about it 
Heartache spoken here 
Well, heartache spoken here 
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears
So come on down we'll talk about it 
Heartache spoken here

I know it hurts so 
When the one you love don't need you 
I know the sorrow 
That a reckless heart can lead to

Heartache spoken here 
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears
So come on down, we'll talk about it 
Heartache spoken here 
Heartache spoken here 
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears 
So come on down we'll talk about it 
Heartache spoken here
