Passion for Life
My wife and I were discussing last night what the defination of this phrase is. I thought it would be someone who enjoys what they do and finds happiness in whatever situation they find themselves in.

Anyone care to chime in with their defination?

1. I believe that in order to enjoy a 'Passion for Life'
one must retain a 'youthful' attitude! :hi:

2. interesting!
i agree with that. an example would be the ability to go to a jimmy buffet concert while in your 40-50's and wear a loud shirt, a parrot on your hat, and a coconut bra. (we saw him on the today show friday, and my oldest son watched also. he was ashast that adults would dress that way.)

3. What a fun analogy!
:) Much more on-target than 'youthful attitude', lol! :)

4. good definition. I would add...
.... that a person who has a passion for life actively tries to surrounds themself with the situations, hobbies, goals and relationships that they think will enrich their life.

Trying new things, improving oneself, enjoying yourself, nad surrounding yourself with people who you enjoy being with I think is a perfect defination!

6. Looking forward to the hills and valleys of what life gives you
Being able to look at life as an adventure, and not sitting around asking "Why me?" As the old saying goes..."Life is a journey, not a destination".
