A while ago，I didn’t think I had a passion．1 would sit in front of the TV all day and not think about anything except the next 36 ．At that time，I didn’t know how 37 it was to have a passion in our life．
The first 38 I thought about this was in the seventh grade when 1 went to school with my mom．As we stopped at a red light，someone 39 my eyes．It was a man dressed in old 40 standing on the other side of the 41 ．This homeless man was not sitting down with a sad and hopeless 42 ．He was standing，waving his hands and dancing．He looked happy and held a radio as if it was the most 43 thing he had．
Seeing all this 44 me．“Morn，why does that man have a radio even though he’s homeless？”I asked．
“He bought it，”she replied．1 was still 45 ．
“But if he’s homeless，why doesn’t he use his money to buy clothes？He 46 his money on something he doesn’t need．He should buy food．”
“Well，Sarah，sometimes food isn’t the most important thing． 47 can be food for the
48 ．Food and clothes aren’t the only things we need．People need happiness to stay 49 ，too．”
I wasn’t sure whether I 50 my mother’s words．Maybe my mom was right．If one lives in sadness，there’s 51 to keep him moving from day to day．
Now I 52 that I’ve had passions all along，but never recognized their importance in my life．They were invisible（无形的）hopes that I 53 without knowing them．What’s often forgotten is that we all need a 54 ，a light on a 55 day．We all need a passion．
