Passion anyone?

Do you ever get the feeling that you don't have a passion in your life? I do. I get that feeling a lot, and it worries me and it scares me. I think, "why don't I love photography enough to take a class and carry a camera with me"? Or, why don't I paint, fish, ski, knit, do yoga, etc., etc because I love it so much I can't stay away?

I want a passion, it's just that I haven't figured out I am passionate about yet. Please note the "yet". A few years ago, I used to think it was because a passion hadn't found me yet. Just recently, I realized how ridiculous that notion was. Of course my passion isn't going to find me; I need to find it (please note that in writing that sentence I erased the word "should" and put in the word "need"). And I think this is something we should all do. I know that we are all very busy individuals...I am the certainly the first one to always discuss how "busy" I am (and I put that into quotations because I often, as you all know, create the busy, and thus the panic, that follows in my life). We just simply need to realize that life is here, it's here now, so let's get at it. I think I am making this a "we" thing so I feel better about this -- it seems more approachable that way.

And what would be even better would be to have a passion that would contribute somehow. Oh -- and a passion that I could please do with my friends. Particularly my girlfriends.

So, can we please figure this out? What we want to do and contribute and be passionate about?
Please?

Sometimes I worry that I am simply not creative enough to figure this out on my own.
(side note: is it a sign that I kept typing "wimp" when I was trying to type "simply" for that sentence?)
Sometime I worry that I don't have all that much imagination. And when I think that, I think about what I can do to ensure that my children get more imagination than I have. And then I worry that I may not be able to teach them to be imaginative because I don't have enough imagination. And you can all see that this is going nowhere in a huge hurry.

Please help. Stat. Need a passion.

The clip I have included with this post is long (18 minutes) but well worth watching (just maybe not when you are attempting to bill more than 5 hours, which is the number that I billed today. Really? 5 hours? Why was I at work for 8!! Damn it!). Andrea turned me on to the site where this clip came from -- TED.com (thank you, thank you, thank you to An). The one that I have included here is Isabel Allende -- very passionate, very, very inspiring.
