I look for passion everywhere. If I can't find it, I feel miserable. Everything I do has to have a meaning. If I don't understand the whys and the hows, I feel devastated. It's a constant struggle.

Money is important, because most people think that freedom and flexibility comes with money. The more money they earn, the more freedom they'll have.
