**Pauline**
First and foremost, my passion is to live each day in abundance and just appreciate every single moment that we are given. I am also hugely passionate about animals and I contribute my time and resources with various organisations. One of my life-goals is to be in a position to devote my time (and more resources) to these organizations and help spread more awareness to the causes.

My passion is my family. As a young mother I crafted a business that gave us freedom to enjoy life but found that it was little things that meant the most. Making sure I was home from the office in time for the school bus was one of the major things that the business allowed me to accomplish. I would get home and brew a pot of tea and have a cookie or two with my daughters to help them wind down. Such a little thing at the time, but many years later I spoke to my daughters college chaplain and she mentioned that it had been a topic about cherished childhood memories in one of their meetings. Now, as grandparents, we have moved from Florida (in our early retirement) to Texas so as not to miss the childhood of our only grandchild. We enjoy being a major support and do everything we can to be there and to enjoy the little things with her so she has sweet memories as well.

My passion is living, and the every aspects that encompass my life. I simply love to live because living allows me to meet and interact with wonderful, talented people. I strongly believe that there is a balance in life, and that alone helps to encourage me to keep going regardless of any hardships I may face. Staying positive is the key because it allows you to improve yourself. If you can fight the battles within your mind, you can fight anything.

Whitney
My passion is my family, they are my #1 priority in life. I have a seven year old son who is my pride and joy and I live and breathe to make him happy and give him everything I didn’t have. But like every other parent, I need ‘me’ time as well. I have a huge passion for cooking. I have been cooking and throwing stuff together ever since my mother allowed me in the kitchen, which was pretty young considering I had to use a chair to stand up on so I could reach the counter!! I now appreciate my mom’s patience that I know I probably pushed a few times. I love cooking so much that I signed up for two semesters worth of courses at a local Culinary Arts Institute. Although I love cooking overall, my favorite thing would be baking! I make a amazing raspberry swirl cheesecake!!!

Aren’t you amazed at passionate people? Those who will put their life on the line for a cause? I believe that everyone is passionate about something. The question is, what are you passionate about? In order to understand my passion you have to know what my life is like first. I am a stay at home Mom and I know that this is sometimes viewed as an easy lifestyle; I know I thought that before I became a parent. I couldn’t have been more wrong. My days are filled with mostly unpleasant smells that come from dirty diapers, spit-ups; the list goes on and on. I have to deal with sleepy time cries, boo boo cries, and sometimes I can’t help but want to take a nap myself just to maintain sanity. But what gets me though the day is my passion, my passion to teach my daughter, protect her, love her, and prepare her for the future. Being a parent is the most difficult yet gratifying job I have ever had the privilege of experiencing and I couldn’t be more grateful.

I am passionate about my family. As the girls were growing up, I had to have quality time with them, instead of quantitative time. Owning and managing the restaurants did not leave me very much free time. When I could I would do something with both of them, but also at times take turns, with each of them, and do something special. They will tell you they had a great upbringing, but I always felt a little guilty, for them having to stay with the housekeeper most of the time. Now being retired, I spend as much time as I can with them and the grandchildren, and the girls having grown into, educated, professional, talented women.
