I watched a movie today, which said ‘romantics are addicts.’ Well I’ve quit. Cold Turkey. I refuse to rely on the presence of romance for my happiness! Shoes will suffice! And sunshine, and music, and art, and food, and anything that spontaneously exhilarates me! Anything that ignites a passion in me.
I have many memories of when I thought I was in love, and they evoke that passion…even though it was long ago, and I never could understand why the memories meant so much; because I knew I had changed, and I knew I didn’t want to be back there.
And I realized that as I grow, as I evolve, passion remains a constant, it is merely transferred from one entity to the next.
Once I was passionate about boy bands and sitcoms.
Yesterday I was passionate about yams and real estate.
Today I am passionate about the Grimsby sun on my brown skin and Afro kink.
Tomorrow and beyond, I do not know – the only thing certain is that there will be Passion.

Bring on the Passion for real! When there's no spark, its time to either work on getting the spark back...or just call it a day!
But honey, you have to explain to me WHY you are passionate about yams kani nhai?
LMAO!
Lol Vimbs, these bad boys seldom disappoint! They are best eaten as "Sweet Potato Fries" They are not as heavy as regular potatoes and can be sweet or savory - like in a "sweet potato pie"...ah just thought of a crazy new flavor for Ben and Jerry...!
Interesting...!
LOL Tjidzani - sweet potato ice-cream? I am still trying to forgive Ben & Jerry's for sending Bovinity Divinity to the flavour graveyard.
But passion is essential. Otherwise why bother getting out of bed. Lately I have been very passionate about the weather. The weather is finally complying...
Lol Pandave, you must not have had the pleasure of my soapbox topic on broccoli ice-cream! Maybe I will blog about it one day:)
Bovinity Divinity?! Sounds like one of those things you really want to know more about, but you are afraid of what the knowledge will do to you, so please elaborate. Actually don't. Okay do, wait no. Okay yes, I wanna know what's in it, surely I can find the ingredients and just make my own version if I really need it!
I feel you on the weather Hon, that is most definitely something to be passionate about!
oh tj!
