Youth Views: Reflect upon passion

Miguel Gonzales, sophomore
St. Francis Prep

Passion drives me to practice everyday, train hard and be the best athlete I can. The only detriment is that, at times, it drives me to overwork my body to the point that I can’t function properly.

Passion drives me in everything. It is the extra push that gets me out of bed when it’s 10 degrees outside and it gives me the ambition I need in the classroom. It gives me the desire to better myself in everything and anything I set my mind to.

Passion gives me a reason to act on something. Without passion there is no reason to do something because there is no will to do it.

My passion drives me to do good things in my life and help others as much as I can. Sometimes this can be detrimental, though, because I have no time left for myself. I have to find a good balance between the two.

Passion plays a role in my life in everything I do. My passion for education pushes me to well in school. My passion for faith pushes me to grow in faith and serve as an extraordinary minister of Holy Communion.

Passion is a very strong feeling. Passion plays a role in my life because it motivates me. It also makes me feel happy about something such as football. I am very passionate about football, so I am very happy when I play it.
