It is one of those rhetorical questions...
We all live for something, as in , we all have something that takes a higher priority than anything else. Some live for their families, some live for their work, some live for money ,some live for love.... there is a driving force within all of us. The want for something that keeps us going.
Just think, some of us do the same things for totally different reasons. A simple example, a man working day n night could be for money which makes his family(whom he dearly loves) more comfortable or could be for the simple reason that he lives to work in one case it is "love" that is the passion while in the later work gives him " inspiration ".How much of passion should we have in ourselves , how much passion does it take to create an Albert Einstein?
I admire people who live for passion , i think it takes great courage and work to live for something you believe in and to not live with "compromises with fate". But we are talking about two very extreme ends of a spectrum here. One is a life of a vegetable and the other is ... it is a "life" very very challenging and difficult one. I think most of us fall in an average category. We are not vegetables , but most of us do not have a passion we would die for, i think. We all want different things in different phases of life, some of which are material and some are not.
The passionate kind can sometimes be harmful.Consider Hitler, his passion worked negatively for others, because his passion was power.Like it or not, the world is ruled by the passionate kind. It is them who truly can make an entire generation to change for good or bad.
