My truest desire would be that each person's passion ignites anothers regardless of what endeavor it might be toward. Think of what an empowering world it would be if everyone you encountered reignited your passion! I think that is the draw of Twitter for many - being close to another spark.

I had some thoughts about Ed's tweet and just couldn't get my thoughts together with clarity to write anything at the time. I think that the responses you received are quite interesting and refreshing. It's great to have a chance to connect with and hear from other passionate teachers through these media tools. I often feel like the "black sheep" at my school when I get excited and passionate about learning something new that will help my students. I guess it's the plight of the passionate to keep our own fire alive while igniting the fires of those around us. I am looking forward to reading more of your posts!
