My son does have passion, just no focus. I hope your daughter finds her passion. If she doesn't really have a clue, I find it helps to begin with helping her clarify her values. Whatever path we take in life, however it meanders, when we stay true to our values, we are on the right path. It may look different at different stages of life, but there is a thread that runs through the path we take. I had my son flesh out his dream as much as he could in order to get focused on a path, and he called from Israel tonight with a detailed account of everything he would do to achieve his dream of being a successful musician. It was very well thought out! It sounds like you have a great love for your daughter, and she will always feel safe knowing that you are there holding a place for her. Keep me posted and the best of luck to you! Sandy Rennata~

She has not yet found her passion. It is impossible to make one have a dream and even harder to make them work towards it. Those things have to come from inside. It is odd that the quote choose the Hare, they are fast and can run, but they do so as a flight away from something. A fox or other predator has a goal and often catches the Hare, not by speed alone but by waiting to spring from behind a bush. Cows, however are a bit much for the fox, so they go for the smaller prey of the Hare. It all circles back. size, speed, cleverness, all balance a weakness. What works for one does not work for the other. I know my daughter will find her dream in her way. My goal is to love her and help her know she has a solid place to come back to as she tries and allow her to be her. I am struggling with a similar problem with my older daughter.
