More quotable quotes.........



When I think of the word passion and the meaning to the word passion, what comes to mind are what are my values, what are my beliefs, what are the ideas that lead me to action, what do I do so naturally that perhaps seems natural to me but may be challenging to others? What's in my heart?

I felt that everything in me was being called on to teach. It was very rewarding, it made me feel whole, it made me feel creative. And so it became my lifelong work, the passion to make sure that all children were taught in environments and in ways that truly nurtured their ability to grow and develop to the fullest.

  1. Louise Derman-Sparks is a fascinating woman. I observed her story about her passion to ensure that all children are nurtured in environments that inspires their growth and development. I enjoyed getting to know her passion and desire "to secure a safer more just world for all children - Louise Derman-Sparks." Keala Thank you for your thoughts!
