What’s your passion?

Nothing.

 

Taxidermy motivates me to improve on myself
Drugs motivate me to keep looking and exploring this world
And my friends motivate me to make new memories with those i have

these all are really important to me as because i will perish before i reach my 40s, i must make most of the life i lead. whether that be "your body is a temple" kind of mindset or "ay yo bro just do ALL THE DRUGS and go to EVERY SINGLE PARTY you hear abt and just live like crazy!!" mindset you decide.

i personally think that we should all live like feral animals, ESPECIALLY if you're gonna die young lol

 

Modding, specifically Minecraft. Kind of a nerdy thing, but that's cool.

 

Too many to be listed.

 

I don’t know if reading can be a passion. Other than immersing myself in imaginary worlds, for several hours a day, nothing. Where’s a wizard when you need one.

 

Socially acceptable answer:
Helping relieve people of pain, usually with a medical emphasis. There are obviously tons of types of helping people, but personally I think medical help is the most significant because it's the only type that affects a person every second of their life. A person being in a bad situation in other parts of life is temporary, and they can generally improve their own lives with enough time. Pain though, never goes away. It'll stay and sabotage every second of the person's life, decrease their happiness, limit their career opportunities, diminish their family time, shorten their lifespan etc. until someone with the knowledge to do so fixes it for them. Fixing that one thing changes all other aspects of a person's life too, and giving them a longer lifespan gives them more time to do all things.

More realistic answer:
Insecurity. I have a deep need to prove to myself and others that I have a reason to exist. I struggle with finding a purpose for life, and helping others is a way to convince myself that my purpose is to let other people experience their purpose in the best and most pain-free way possible.

 

I scrolled through some of the responses. I go between these two extremes. Some days, I don't even know! What keeps me on track is figuring out the next thing I want to do or accomplish and the next place I want to see, and planning on how to get there.

 

What I would say when introducing myself: drawing, cooking, reading, nature

What it actually is:
-I don't draw as often anymore.
-Cooking is not enough to call it a passion because I just started getting into it.
-I only like reading a select type of books.
-The concept of nature and being eco friendly is great, but I can never put it into practice properly because I'm too used to our modern lifestyle.

Anime is where it's at.

 

So you have a problem with this? You don't have enough passion?

 

No, I don't have a problem with it. If a person is having a bout of depression, then there isn't a lot of passion for things at that time.

 

I seem to have misplaced mine

 

I get that. Some days I have no interest in anything and others it’s like the world is a learning playground with so much to do and explore.

I do like to write. I like wise literature. I like to travel and see new places.

 

Which kinds of worlds? I do that too. But this is unhealthy for me, I think. Because it feels bad when I see it differs with the reality of my real world I am living in. I immerse myself because I don't like the environment in my real life. Perhaps similar for you?
My favourite life is medieval ages or a fantasy world that resembles that ages.

 

I become lost in a book and tend to not notice that world around me or time passing. I remember one day in school a friend asked me if I was okay. I told her I was fine but why was she asking. It turned out a girl in my class had stood in front of my desk and said some pretty mean things. However I was so lost in the book I hadn’t noticed her there or heard a word she said. I daydream about what I read. I think I spent most of my school years in Hogwarts. I found a tyrannical homicidal cult leader who could use magic more appealing than class. I regret that but the only class I paid attention to was history because I had an old teacher who could tell when she had a dayreamer. She said my name about once every three minutes instantly snapping me out of a daydream. She did it so seamlessly I bet there were other classes where she constantly said some other kids name.

 

I see. I do have excessive daydreaming (unwanted) and it is a very big problem for me.
I deliberately did daydreaming (fantasising) at some point in my life and I think that deliberate fantasising played a big role in developing my daydreaming to such a big problem. I mean, that fantasising made a habit of excessive daydreaming I have to deal with every second in my life. I don't know if that's the case for you.

 

It’s never become a problem for me I mostly daydream at night while I’m falling asleep. Sometimes I daydream during the day but staring at thin air tends to freak people out. I only have deliberate daydreams.
