Emotions

Level 10 Passions. I think that there are many things that we have level 10 passions about, but one level 10 passion is on a different level than another. The raw emotion and need for the customers that Nathan has attracted to Adoption.com is probably a more driving level 10 passion than say, my love for Vibram Five Finger toe shoes. I would say that my desire for children is a level 10 passion, and it aligns with some desires to immigrate to this country.

 I interviewed someone, who has a strong Mexican background, thinking that she is a citizen, but is not and learned that because she was brought illegally into the country as a child, does not have a secure option to become a citizen of the US. Her condition is debilitating because she can not travel via airplane, which means that she will probably not travel very far, though she would like to. She's missed out on opportunities that she has earned, like competing in national competitions because she is an illegal alien. She wants to be a citizen, since she grew up here, but has no right to it. This is her Level 10 desire right now, and I bet it's just as high on her list as that woman who said that she had a hole in her heart that she's afraid might never be filled. Another friend mentioned that her mother just married a man from Africa, who is trying to immigrate. He has friends that have had to move away from their spouses because of citizen and green card issues.
