Three Passions Assignment

Three main passions of mine include religion, music, and fitness. Religion has always been something I loved and worked on since the day I was born. I was born into it, yet had a choice if I wanted to stay or choose to not. As a girl growing up, religion was always instilled in my household, but it wasn’t until my teenage years that I started to appreciate religion for what it is. Growing closer to God brought me more blessings than I could ever imagine, and I hope to continue growing closer to God and His way of the world. Next is music. I have always been a huge fan of music and the joy it brings me, but recently I have been loving music and started to create my own. I have been learning how to play instruments to be able to start making my own unique mix of a song. Music is not something that is associated with a certain type of feeling or can only be played at a certain time. Music is something flexible, and that’s the beauty of it; whether you’re sad or happy, there’s always different types of moods and vibes to songs that can either help or make your mood worse. When we are happy, we tend to listen to more upbeat music, as when we are sad, we listen to more depressing, slow music. Lastly is my love for fitness. I had a friend in sophomore year of high school who passed away due to a car accident, and he was my motivation to work out. He loved working out and made it something he would do every day. He always sent me motivational quotes like, “No one can do it for you, you are your own motivation,” which was something I took for granted at the time. He always convinced me to work out and motivated me. He was the reason my fitness journey began. The gym was our spot. When he passed away, I decided to keep his passion alive by continuing it in his memory.
