PASSION BOARD ROUND-UP

As you can see, clearly, I created  this magnificent piece of art work (wink, wink) back in 2006 during an art group planned as part of staff development (when I was still working)!  The goal of this group was to create something that represents-

“PASSION”

This was what I came up with!

 

 

I left my Director’s job of nearly 6 years in 2007.  Looking back at this board from time to time since October 2007  has been a great “eye-opener” because I had no idea what I was going to do when I left my job.  I just knew that it was time for me to end that chapter of my life.   I did  have thoughts of living in Thailand in the back of my mind.

According to the passion board,  Travel, Adventure, Family, Justice, Energy. Strength are the central themes in my life.  This tiny board with few words really says a lot about  my passion in life.  To me, denying these things and living without them would be like existing without Oxygen: leaving me lifeless, maybe even hopeless.

So here’s the thing-  you too can create one of these in the comfort of your very own home.

And with this post, we invite you to DISCOVER and UNLEASH  your PASSION through ART and CREATIVITY

It is  our hope that you participate and give yourself a chance to express your passion.
