With apologies to Sun, The Passion Is The Life. However instead of repeating something which I wrote some months ago, I hope it is ok to leave a link to the said post here: http://laviequotidienne.wordpress.com/2007/11/15/the-pursuit-of-happiness/ It is not that I could not do the cut-and-paste, but I just finished my soup and I better put that bowl in water before it goes all crusty. :-) Ah, the beast rears its head again.

Where's the line between passion and workaholism? (Not directing that last question to anyone in particular - could also ask it of myself.)

My idea of a great night is really getting 'work' done. Sometimes I feel the burnout simply because of eye strain or sitting too long, or the occasional time when I am spinning my wheels, not really accomplishing much, but other than that I feel absolutely satisfied. Staying in good shape is really important to me, and something you really cannot achieve by sitting in front of a computer (yet?), so I practice a yoga/martial art Dahn Mu Do everyday. Also I take classes, but almost always software instruction, like After Effects which I will do next week. In a nut shell I think I am so lucky to enjoy this so much, and I can't imagine it any other way (for now). I love the web. My idea of a great night is really getting ‘work’ done.
