My passion is snowboarding... the purpose and goal would be to get off the fucking ski lift without falling off.

We have the 'ucky' mountains here, so to get good snow, we usually travel up to mammoth...

On the upside, I finally learned how to toe yesterday.

What am I - the oldest sibling, the breadwinner...

What is my passion - when in high school I knew my passions, sports (basketball and softball; mostly the latter) and my sheep. I guess my passion now would be raising the best Hampshire sheep I can...

What is my purpose - I don't know that I have a clear-cut purpose...to help my brother and sister all I can, help my parents at least a fraction of how much they've helped me (I know I can never match it), make my husband as happy as I can...

my purpose and passion is words. words are an artform that never ceases to amaze me. i don't actually care about spelling, punctuation or the likes. what i care about is creating a moment in time that will live on for as long as man continues to record history. my choseen medium at this juncture in time is lyrics. and considering my insatiable love of horror, i write mostly death metal. but as fate would have it, and she often does, i am at a crossroads in my life that is making me consider some alternate routes. we shall see what the future holds! but rest assured that there will be zombies involved!

oh yeaus, i would be remiss in my worldy duties if i didn't throw a shout out to that which gives me the strength to continue in my daily pursuits...my wife and three teens! they are the what, when how and why of my existance!

My purpose is devine.

I am to re-invent how the world views and thinks about politics. I am to change the world in ways that can only be achieved through manipulating the wicked to conforming.

My passion is money, I want it all. With It I will always be able to control my outcome or goals desired.

As of now I am poorer than many people may believe.

I sometimes feel like a solipsist bound by the Anthropic Principle: my ultimate purpose is to see as much of the universe as possible during my lifetime and to live the most varied existence possible.

But I have settled for unconventional problem solver. It keeps me busy and every day is different from the one before.

I don't know.
And at 34, that's extremely frustrating.

I think my passion is being happy. Finding happiness in everything. I don't stress or worrying if I can help it. Oh and cooking, baking. I love love love to cook, bake, and anything kitchen related.

I think my purpose was to be a wife and mother. It's the only thing I ever wanted to be. Although I've gone the "career" route, I'm retired now at 42 and devoted to my son, who will leave for college in 2 years, then it's all about my husband.

I have no idea what my "calling" is or was. Maybe it's cooking, maybe it's the law. Maybe its something I've never explored. All I know is I am happy and I never wake up in the morning thinking, "Ugh, another day of . . ."
