No, it's not. Passion is the only thing that gives us real purpose. Without purpose, you might as well be dead.

- Bakary 10y agoHe probably means that whether your life is passionate or not it is still delineated by your eventual death.
- Radim 10y agoPassion is a bunch of factors (including your hormonal responses) conspiring to better explore the evolutionary mutation/branch that is YOU. Yes, putting energy and "passion" into your unique abilities may enable you to reach your potential. And perhaps ultimately decide whether this particular mutation was worthwhile, in the long run. But if you think "purpose" has some mystical meaning, and judge your existence on achieving it... Passion has evolved only as means to an end, and is not worth glorifying. Not any more than you'd glorify "hunger" or "pain" or "pride". It's an optimization technique in the rat race called "evolution".
