Powerful.
The Ordinary becomes Spectacular!
It’s moments
like these
in the classroom and in my home
that make life
so enormously special.
PASSION
drives excellence.
Where
is my passion? How
can I spark
passion? Passion
fuels the energy to keep going.
In moments of passion,
my heart thrives… reflects… adjusts….
In the moments when the ordinary becomes spectacular,
my heart soars.
How can I keep
the passion going?
When I’m tired,
am I passionate? Does
my passion weary?
I must not!
Love Ruth’s post!
Great meaning
for each day of teaching,
writing,
living.

It’s easy to see you have a passion for literacy and sharing it with others. Thanks!
I was inspired by Ruth’s post also. It can be difficult to keep that passion alive, especially with the many demands on our time. Thankfully, we have this wonderful community motivating us to be our best, passionate selves!
Amen, Mary Helen. Passion is what keeps one alive and well. I can see passion in your eyes all the time.
Well said, Mary Helen. I feel it through your words.
Mary Helen,
I’m humbled that my words seeped into you and inspired a post. It is surreal to see them reflected back in this post. Thank you for writing it.
Ruth
