Maxine Clark has a great passion behind Build-a-Bear. This story in BusinessWeek online is a wonderful little reminder about the joy you can receive (and help others create) by pursuing your passion.
I particularly like her closing comments:
Finally, you should always allow yourself to dream—and dream big—it's only through such thinking that great things happen. Don't limit yourself because you don't think your dream is attainable. You must start by believing you can truly achieve whatever you set your mind to, no matter how big it might seem. Not dreaming big enough is one of the biggest mistakes you can make—if you can't see your dream, how do you expect others to?
I have always been a strong proponent of dreaming big...or making your goals hilarious.
