		<description>I&#039;m not sure if I agree with you when you say passion stems from commitment.  Passion inspires commitment and drives you towards your go.  Passion equals motivation.</description>

		<description>You&#039;re so right!  I knew I wanted to become a writer and when I was first starting, I took a gig writing about the media, journalism and how technology is just changing everything.  Doing all that research on the topic resulted in a passion for keeping up with the changes in media and all the new inventions and innovations out there.

A tip for those who are passionate about the same things as I am - check out the Knight News Challenge (http://newschallenge.org) - you can win a grant to fund your ideas related to technology and journalism.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;Lair:&lt;/b&gt; Thanks for your intelligent comment.  Let me try to make the point again...
&lt;br&gt;
Do you ever wonder why people who have had arranged marriages have a lower divorce rate than people who have love marriages?
&lt;br&gt;
Its a paradox that boggles the minds of most Westerners.  People who are married without falling in love should have higher divorce rates than people who have fallen in love and then marry - right?  But the opposite is true.  According to some article I read long time back, 50% of love marriages end in a divorce.  But only 10% of arranged marriages end in a divorce.
&lt;br&gt;
Why the discrepancy?  Because people who marry (commit) - fall in love eventually.  But people who start with love - can&#039;t always find long term commitment.
&lt;br&gt;
Passion and commitment maybe two sides of the same coin.  But commitment creates stronger and lasting bonds.  If you have to select between the 2 - always select commitment.</description>

		<description>I couldn&#039;t agree more. A year and a half ago I started blogging with the intention of trying to somehow earn a living. Since then I&#039;ve become obsessed with improving the way I design and write, all along figuring out exactly what I like to do. I still don&#039;t have a clear idea, but I&#039;ve starting building websites just for the love of it instead of just to earn a living. Yep, the passion continues to grow in leaps and bounds!</description>

		<description>I enjoyed this post Ankesh!  Sometimes we just have to get a project going and it will gather steam (momentum) as we go.  Who knows we might like it!
If we wait to have a passion - we may never get started!</description>
