and to be there at all cost.

There is one word that can be used,
to answer the original question.

That word can not be confused,
all of the above fall under "Passion".


We are all passionate about something and it is not always a positive and lovely thing. Check your heart and your passions and the effort you make in living your passion out. Jesus was passionate enough to die for us. May we be passionate enough to live for him.
