Baudelaire had it right I believe when he wrote You have to be always drunk he went on to say to fully appreciate what you say and do the drunkenness has to be he gave us three choices on what to be drunk on “wine, poetry or virtue” virtue? don't know how you can be drunk on virtue eh . . . drunk . . . methinks old Baudelaire really meant passion ah, yes, that's more like it now I understand how someone can be drunk on virtue . . . insert passionate here and it works whatever we are drunk/passionate about we need to share it with our passer byes heck, if only one out of ten understand and accepts your passion all is well in your corner of the world spread your message what 'ere it be start a movement march like the passion you have in your heart yeah, old Baudelaire had it right I believe when he wrote You have to be always drunk(passionate) ©June 28, 2015 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

It is then that we find, as we follow our passion, we can no longer call it "working" for a living... Amen! ~L |
