"My passion and fire run deep through my veins, through my blood. Deep within my soul. I was born this way. It's what makes me magical."

I’m Italian. We’re very passionate. Passion can be sensual but it’s not sexual. If you don’t understand, learn the difference.
The dictionary says passion is any powerful or compelling emotion. I take issue with this.
True passion is a mode of being, something that lives deep within someone. I haven’t decided if that is good or bad.

I guess I should think of it as having pro’s and con’s. My passion for everything is strong. Because of that people either love or dislike me, there usually is no middle ground.
I believe I am incapable of doing anything without passionate focus. It makes much of what I do very intense. That can wear on others. TheGuy struggles with this at time, bless him.

I struggle with small talk. I enjoy speaking with people in depth, people that speak with emotion, and yes, passion.
I’ve had to train myself that most people’s “How are you?” is rhetorical. I quietly tell myself, 'Andrea, just tell them you’re fine. They don’t need to hear of what your soul is actually dealing with right now’.
The sad part of that is that when I ask others how they are, I really want to know. "Hey, how are you? How are you, really?"

Nowadays passionate has been somewhat replaced with ‘emotive’. It doesn’t feel the same. I’m not overly emotional. But when I feel emotions, I feel them deeply.
I also feel others emotions quite deeply as well. That brings another challenge as it can wear me out if I’m not paying attention.

This past year has been an emotional rollercoaster for all of us. At the times when I was low, I preferred to spend time alone, so as not to be too draining on others.
I found I had less energy to give to others, which made me sad. But we have to care for ourselves first. As I enter into this spring I’ll be better prepared to be that rock everyone looks to me for.

To end this on an upbeat note, another thought about passion and Italians that tickles me, a friend of mine shared...
'As an Italian, even our passionate and articulate language is often not enough to express ourselves fully; exuberant hand gestures are a common part of every conversation.’
TheGuy jokes with me often about tying my hands up so I can’t talk. 😂😂😂
