		<description>oprah has inspired whole generations of people hasn&#039;t she?
but your motto is an inspiration as well.
alas, and i&#039;m not complaining here... not sure how i feel about it... but i have no passion for a particular thing. 
i do for animals. and i help them as much as i can, both actively and monetarily, but as to a true passion that pulls me to action... i just don&#039;t. i am so content. 
actually i&#039;m so content, i don&#039;t even feel i&#039;m in a rut! though maybe i am. a rut of contentment! lol.
i think perhaps i&#039;m finally floating. there were years of struggle constantly... loss and struggle. it&#039;s like now, i&#039;m resting on a little green leaf enjoying the parade.</description>

		<description>Suzie,
:) Thanks for coming by and commenting. 

Do you think the grads will follow her advice?  I know when I graduated I didn&#039;t know exactly what I wanted to do, but I did know I was looking for something that I could immerse myself in.  One reason I married my husband was he enjoyed what he was doing.  I knew I wanted that for myself, and that I couldn&#039;t marry someone who didn&#039;t value that, too.  I kept looking until I found it.</description>

		<description>This is so true, I think we can go off path when we are not following what we know and feel is right for us. 

I was so inspired by this speech of Oprahs&#039; too. I would have loved to hear that at 18:)
I just found your blog by a comment you left at Patricia&#039;s

I have added you as a friend in PDP</description>

		<description>Hi Jean,  thank you the link back to my site.  

I am pretty much in agreement with having the need to tune in to inner Self.  When we set goals that are not in alignment, our actions become mis-guided and we may well end up feeling as if something is still missing.

Thanks for sharing this great piece of article,
