Passion? I guess if I were to attempt a definition without looking it up I would say something that is a powerful motivation for someone either in the short term or long term.

I think one can be passionate in short bursts about almost anything. One can deliberate on what the motivations are in that case, but I think it's possible.

That's my best guess without finding a dictionary.

I think you define it really well.

The dictionary is the most boring version i am really intrigued by the nuance and challenges to my own definitions

So much appreciated 🙏

I would take a dictionary definition before a Google-searched one at this point but generally, I agree.

I think maybe the dictionary is best used as a tool to expand our lexicon and help us develop a better understanding of the concepts we are exposed to.

I don't like the concept of "my truth." There is the truth and then our approximation of it. The truth exists, but any individual is varyingly limited in their ability to access, perceive and express it.

"My truth" is a very new age term and I'm not a fan of that ideology at all.

I see your point this "my Truth" is in this case meaning perspective and nuance.

The respect one is a good example it had a lot of overlap but many differences.

Many will ask for respect or give it but what that means imo can only be understood if you know their respect.

Fascination and expanding my own views and learning about others perspective without fighting about it is the Motivation here.
