On the path of becoming, on entering any 'way', what is the role of passion?

Can I take it to a more masochistic state, and say that rather acceptance, its the need to suffer in order for something to be a passion?

the role of passion is to fade

Most folks think of passion as synonomous with excitement or lust.The latin root for the word passion means to "suffer'.

Passion as suffering? I never knew that.
It makes perfect sense, though. To have a passion for something is to suffer the trials related to the experience, and also the time away from it.
