They know that life has got to have more than what they're experiencing.

Now, everybody has a passion.

Everybody doesn't have it the same way.

Everybody doesn't express it the same way,

but everybody has at least the potential for fire.

Passion has to deal with your spiritual intensity,

the fire within.

That thing that causes you to burn.

I've seen Folkl told me they weren't emotional.
