The proof of passion is time
The proof of passion is time.
Not just the days you spend working on something, but also the tiny moments you spend thinking about it when you’re away. The daydreams in which you mull the next step, the long showers wherein you ruminate about how you’d go about it.
The proof of love is time.
It’s when something distracts you as it bring your love to mind, and takes up a tiny bit of time in the middle of your day. It’s when you think about what you should pick up while you’re already about, because it may benefit your love. It’s the hours you spend observing, listening, learning, in order to know that love more deeply.
The proof of care is time.
The precautions you take to make sure things will go just right. The extra time you put in to polish and to perfect. The periodic double-check to make sure things are still in order. The time you take to look back at what you did and make sure it is good to go. The time you take to celebrate your accomplishments.
The proof of passion is time.
You can’t claim passion for something you don’t put time into—even curiosity takes time! It takes time to learn, observe, and most importantly, act. It takes time to perfect, to fail, to retry, and sometimes to succeed. There’s always more time to spend with something you’re passionate about, something new to learn, something new to try, something new to achieve.
When you’re passionate about something, you make the time.
Because the proof of passion
is time.
