Everyone will answer the "Living the Marist Way" questions.

As a homeroom, discuss each question together. As a student, choose at least one question to reflect on and answer completely in the comment field about how your book connects with the Marist Way.]]> 2022-08-14 22:11:13 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2260742389 Our Homeroom/Advisory read . . . williamsa90 https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2260742390 1.

To live a Marist life or share a Marist Way, we say that we strive to follow God…as Mary did.

Mary followed God in a certain way.

Though we do not know all that Mary did, the way we think Mary lived her life and went about her work inspires us. The Marist priests call this “Mary’s work.” 

We believe that at the heart of Mary’s work is an openness to all people, excludes no one, and is designed to enable men and women to grow and develop according to their call.

During the summer, that was something I struggled with quite a lot, and I want to learn how to do that. I want to be able to live a life where I'm proud of myself, both spiritually and in every other aspect. Being able to able to exist, and being able to be alive genuinely, is something that the main character of my book, Nora, struggled with a lot. So much so to the point that she ended her life completely. I want to be able to see the world that God has created through a happier lens, and I understand, yes, of course, life isn't always going to be happy, for goodness comes form misfortune.

Its inspired me to find more to look forward to life, something I didn't have too much of over the summer because of the horrible mental state I was in. Reading the Midnight Library allowed me to understand the world through Nora's perspective, something I didn't expect to relate to as much as I did. It's gotten me to anticipate more instead of less and sort of draw away from my overly pessimistic qualities, at least just a little bit. After reading this book, I started finding joy in the little things over the summer, like drawing definitely, or the gentle and almost tranquil stillness of the night and how cozy it feels. ]]> 2022-09-01 20:45:07 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2279856250 The Midnight Library Reading-Taylor Gitonga https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2279858096 My book helped me grow closer and expand on my relationship with God by taking more notice and appreciation of the world he's created and the things that he's done for us. It helped me understand Him on more of a deeper level, as with my appreciation of life in general, I found myself appreciating him More. It was definitely something that opened my eyes on my spiritual journey, and yes, even if I am still searching for God, still searching for a way to grow the bond that we already share, I do feel that this book provided a great stepping stone for that. ]]> 2022-09-01 20:47:41 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2279858096 The Midnight Library Reading-Taylor Gitonga https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2279860064 One example of mercy that was shown in my book was when Nora finally reconciled and forgave her brother, Joe, for having been ignoring her for so long.

We had the smallest and slowest boat on the lake because it was a rental. When we were driving back from a long day from swimming in the lake in Tennessee we saw some people that looked like they were waving to say hi. Then we realized they needed help. There boat had died in the middle of the lake so they were just floating with no where to get help. We tried to jumpstart but it did not work so then we tied there boat to the back of ours and towed them all the way to the arena where the could get there boat started and and go back out on the water safely. Another way is when we were in Hawaii there was this big wave that knocked over my brother and instead of calling for my parents I grabbed him so he would not hit rocks on the bottom or be pulled out really far. ]]> 2022-09-02 15:31:41 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2280871617 Colin Dykes https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2280925024 One act of mercy in my book was when the main character got hurt and someone he didn't even know risked there life to carry him to safety.]]> 2022-09-02 16:17:50 UTC https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2280925024 Colin Dykes https://padlet.com/williamsa90/1ylw1cqdu0addk39/wish/2280933815 I will live the Marist way this year by being a good friend to my classmates and trying to become friends with people I don't know.
