Great Quote

Gwen said this on Candyce’s blog.

“There’s nothing worse than contrived passion. It’s like an echo in an empty canyon, put forth with great effort and always returns but with a strange hollow sound.”

That’s amazing…what are your thoughts?

    Wow… that’s a little too close to home to simply enjoy the simple profundity. I want my efforts to go forth with a BOOM! I guess that’ll only happen with REAL passion. Thanks for the quote!

    you gotta know that anything profound is born of experience. Unfortunately, I can talk about contrived passion, in a word…ick! Thanks for the linky ;) Gwen

    great quote … it makes me wonder what motivates someone to contrive passion anyway …?

    kris, let me count the reasons…
    duty, guilt, need, there’s a hole in the dyke, misplaced loyalty etc. etc. etc….
