a strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept
but what happens when what you have desired for so long is finally in your hands? Will we treasure it? Or will the novelty of our newest acquisition wear off sooner than we had expected?
It is human nature that we begin to desire the things we cannot have, but it is easier for us to enjoy the chase rather than the object we've been blindly chasing after for so long.
I came to college desiring to find something that I'm passionate about. I thought I was passionate about medicine, but I've begun to realize through my Program II essay that I'm not passionate about medicine; I'm passionate about what I can do with it. I am truly passionate about helping kids and about using what I have been blessed with to help others who were not blessed with similar material goods or opportunities.
Writing my Program II essay, I wanted to put down in words why I am passionate about medicine, but then I began thinking, what happens when I become a doctor? What will I be working towards then?
