Always wondered if you made a living doing what you love if you'd just end up hating what you love.

I don’t think it’s quite like that, I dunno. The feeling just dulls abit for awhile. Like..I spend to much time working because I enjoy it, then never have any passion left for a own project. But if I have some time away from work I will start on my own things again.

Weird. I enjoy developing software and this is an insanely large field. My job at work is focused on a specific area of the field so in my free time I still feel passionate about other areas of the field. I guess as an analogy imagine you love playing video games and you are a professional FPS player. So you might be tired of FPS games in your free time but you can still enjoy MMORPGs in your free time.
