Its wicked to see an entire blog post dedicated to passion. I have one quote to add Joe:
"It’s a great thing when you realize you still have the ability to surprise yourself." – American Beauty
I love running this blog because I inherently love seeking new information. Not because its nice to know more things, but because it’s completing that puzzle in my head of the world as I know it.
I didn’t wake up one day and decide I love Nokia.
I’m 20 years old and I come to the same realization every single day I wake up: I don’t know anything. Sitting in front of Wikipedia for hours at a time is fun, but nothing beats having a conversation with someone on a topic I know very little or nothing about. Years of compounding information and new experiences made me what I am.
I love mobile phones because they enable me to have a world of information in my pocket. At the end of the day I don’t care about the camera, the GPS or the QWERTY keyboard. It’s the connection that counts.
Information by itself is meaningless. My passion is finding out how to use it to create something new. As you celebrate your coworkers retirement, I celebrate a new day. After being involved in a car accident that almost killed me, I’ve grown to love life more than anything I’ve ever loved before.
I’m slowly beginning to realize that what I want isn’t something I can easily find.
And unlike the N95, I don’t have GPS to help me find it.
