What makes you tick?

I'm sure we all have some form of passion for certain things; things that we spend most of our leisure hours in, and finds pure joy engaging. I've known of people who are so into their passion, it became an obsession. But have you wonder why so? What is it about that hobby or genre of artifacts that can fuel a person to persistently pursue, even to point of losing sleep and/or fortune over? You may disagree, but I choose to believe that it is all about love. Not love for the object itself, but the feeling of love that's attached to the object that brings love for it.

I've a good friend and colleague who literally breath on bicycles. He owns countless bikes that I'm sure it would take even himself awhile to count all of them; each and every one of different shapes, size and makes, for different purposes, terrains and loads. He organizes and goes on local (Singapore) and overseas road trips with his group from lovecycling.net extensively, but what I know of him is not just about the intricacy of mechanism of bicycles that drives him, rather, the reciprocated exchange of love he finds serving a community of like minded people.

And for me, it's all about the loving experiences and memories that watches bring, that's why I love watches for; its associating kinship, relationships and friendships. No other watch maker share my sentiment as much as 'Solvil et Titus'.

As you continue your passion pursue, may you discover what actually makes you tick. I would not be surprise if it is love indeed.
