I have heard some suggest that the adage of โ€˜find your passion and make it your lifeโ€™s workโ€™ is bullsh*t โ€ฆ ๐Ÿค” I respectfully disagree. Itโ€™s out-of-the-blue messages like this one that make it so. ๐Ÿ’Œ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Keep putting your โค๏ธ in the work. #adaptive #kayaking #disability โ€“ at Pittsburgh, PA
