Dictionary.com says that "passion" is defined as,
1. any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling, as love or hate.
2. strong amorous feeling or desire; love; ardor.
3. strong sexual desire; lust.
4. an instance or experience of strong love or sexual desire.
5. a person toward whom one feels strong love or sexual desire.
6. a strong or extravagant fondness, enthusiasm, or desire for anything
My own definition of "passion" would be,
The overwhelming desire for something/someone.
Whether it be doing something, loving someone, really wanting some type of food, I believe it is all passion.
I have a great passion for ice cream. I don't see anything wrong with indulging myself with ice cream or frozen custard or frozen yogurt. I know that these foods are not exactly good for me but I like to eat them and I would definitely choose them over any sort of fruit or vegetable.
I am passionately in love with my boyfriend. I want to be with him as much as possible, even if we're just watching TV. Being with him makes me happy and that it why I would choose him over some other things/people in my life.
I have a passion for baking and cooking. I don't get to do it very often because of my money situation and because I don't have much spare time. If there was no money in the world and I could choose any job without having to worry about paying for formal training or for the supplies, I would drop out of college and open a bakery.
I believe there are three kinds of passions: one that you indulge in every once and a while when you can, one that you indulge in often because you can, and one you can't indulge in.
I read somewhere, "Turn your passion into your day job and you'll never go to work." I've also heard, "Never quit your day dream." These are both saying that you should follow your dreams and you won't wake up dreading your life. I know a lot of people that have had to make many sacrifices to follow their dreams; moving far away from home, ending relationships, spending thousands of dollars, accepting a lower pay, quitting their "dream job." But if you truly want to live your passion, there will be sacrifices you have to make.
It's up to you if the end justifies the means.
