I used to have little passion（激情，热情）in my life. But what happened the other day changed my mind. It was then that I learned how it is to have a passion in life.
That day I went home in Mom’s car. When Mom at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed rags. He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, because I had seen like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless
.
But this man was in some way. He was not sitting down with a expression. Instead, he had a in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious thing he had.
“Mom, why does that man have a radio he’s homeless?” I asked.
“He it, “ she replied.
“But why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He something that he didn’t need.”
“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important.”
That man must care so much about that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that is the key to life.
Since then I am always thinking of is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes – these things are part of the life. What we often forget is that we all need a joy, a light on a day. We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.

It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion(激情) is to life.
That day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the library. I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my attention. It was a man dressed in rags(破旧衣服).He was homeless. That didn't interest me, for I had seen many like him before.
But in some way he was different. This man was not sitting down with a sad expression. He had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious thing he had.
“Mum, why does that man have a radio even though he's homeless？” I asked.
“He bought it,” she answered. I was still confused.
“But if he's homeless, why doesn't he use the money to buy food or clothes? He wasted it on something he doesn't need.”
“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren't the most important things. We need happiness, too.”

What will you do when you have something difficult to do? I used to ask my mother for help. But she always said, “Do it yourself, dear.” or “God helps those who help themselves , girl.” I was not glad at all. I thought she was the laziest mother in the world.
For example, one day, I decided to invite some friends to my home. My bedroom was not in order. Books were everywhere. And I didn’t make the bed. I asked my mother to help me to clean it, but she still said, “Do it yourself, girl.”
Because of my“lazy mother”, I have to wash my clothes and clean my room. I have to help my parents do some housework. I even have to go to the dentist by myself. It is really hard for me to do everything well, but I have learned a lot.
As time goes by, I come to understand my mother. She makes me clever and active! What a great mother!

A Passion（热情）for Driving
It was a Friday morning, 7:30 am. I felt too lazy to drive my car, so my son booked an Uber. In five minutes, the Uber reached our door. I checked the cab number and got inside the car. I was busy searching my bag for an important paper, so I just said, “Please, go quickly! I’m in a hurry!”
The driver replied, “Yes, ma’am!”
I was surprised when I heard a female voice. I stopped for a second and looked at the driver. She was a young lady. Maybe around 30 or 32 years old. I had never had a female Uber driver before. I became interested in why she chose this job. I started the conversation, “If you don’t mind, can I ask you some questions?”
“Yes, ma’am! No problem,” she said.
“I guess you are well-qualified,” I said.
“Yes, ma’am! I have completed my education. I have even gotten my MBA.”
“What made you choose to do this job?” I could see her smiling face in the rear-view mirror(后视镜).
I love driving. I don’t care how big or small my job is. I wanted a job where I can get satisfaction. I haven’t made much money from it yet, but as I told you, I love driving! That’s all there is to it.” Very politely, she said, “Driving has been my passion since childhood. Of course, I respect each and every job. In this case, at least I realized my dream.
