Excerpt
“Paul seemed pretty excited about that ad campaign,” Emily
said after a moment of silence.
Mitch glanced at her and nodded. “Advertising is his passion.”
“What?” she asked.
“His passion,” Mitch repeated. “You know the thing he loves.”
Emily cocked her head and gave him a smile. “I thought Rachel was his passion.”
Mitch laughed. “Well,
yeah, that’s a given. But advertising is
also a passion. It gets his juices
flowing. He loves it. You can tell.
I believe everyone has at least one passion. It may not always be a healthy one, but
everyone has to have something that drives them.”
“What do you mean?”
“Take Steven, for example,” he said to her. Emily looked over at his brother. “You know him pretty well. What do you think is the most important thing
to him?”
“Anna,” she said promptly.
“Well, and Mia. And your parents,
you, and Tori.” She stopped and
laughed. “I guess that’s more than one
thing.”
“No. You got it
right. It’s family. Steven has always been a family guy. Has always wanted to be with his family, in
his hometown. That’s his passion.”
“Hmm,” Emily said thinking.
“Do you have a passion?”
“Sure, I have three.”
“Three? What are
they?”
He shot her a sly look.
“You tell me yours, and I’ll tell you mine.”
He hadn’t expected the sad look that crossed her face. She didn’t respond. He reached for her hand and squeezed. “Hey, what’s wrong?”
“I don’t think I have a passion,” she whispered.
“Sure, you do.” She
shook her head so he continued. “You’re
passionate about computers.”
She thought about it for a minute. “Not really.
I mean I like working with them.
I enjoy teaching about them, but I don’t think I can call it a
passion.” She paused. “I really don’t have a passion.”
“Well, then, I guess we will have to find you one.”
