I had never heard of a persons passion referred to as that. But I think it's so true, that once you find that one thing that you love more than yourself, you must defend it with everything you have. 20eatkinsl https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/509119044 2020-04-15 17:59:34 UTC https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/509119044 I believe it was very powerful how she had expressed that she was able to belittle her failure because of her home and the sense that she could now write just for herself. It's very inspiring for someone who may experience failure in their future. 22emarchet https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/509581416 2020-04-15 23:31:02 UTC https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/509581416 https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/511272441 I love how she did not give up writing. Even when she had rejection letters and that for her love of writing she never gave up! I feel like as writers we all can relate. I cannot speak for everyone else, but for me writing has been my voice through out this world even when I fail. - Kelsey Gallagher]]> 2020-04-16 17:29:18 UTC https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/511272441 I like how she did not lose herself and her passion of writing from when she had dozens of rejection letters or when her success didn't let her write a sequel to her book without having her fail. Instead of letting the pressure take over her, she found her way back home and I think that is a message that everybody needs to hear. 21sjoseph https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/511336436 2020-04-16 18:00:46 UTC https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/511336436 I really liked when she talked about wanting to give up and how she learned to find inspiration from all those times she had tried before. I love how she used the word home to describe something she loved which I completely agree because home is where you have found something you really love. I really liked that she said that we have to find our way back home to what we really love because is a great reminder that many of us need to hear. 21galvarado https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/511489032 2020-04-16 19:18:40 UTC https://padlet.com/creynolds38/ycaje6w8t6bfcv7f/wish/511489032
