It’s been almost 2 years blogging on my A Mother Joy blog spreading love and joy into families all over the world.
I intended to create a community of parents, families, educators, carers who want to take inspiration from my experiences as a Montessori teacher and the journey with my own 2 children. I am combining this with my huge current passion for Montessori, I am so happy to share everything I know with you and parents, from my daily observations, my thoughts and my passion for working with children loving them day by day.
Once again, I realized that writing about the journey with my children makes me delighted and very motivated to act.
It is so much is true that if we catch the opportunity to do what we love, we feel fulfilled, and thus, we are much happier and more satisfied with ourselves. Running a blog is just such an activity for me that gives me energy every day. It’s my space that makes me smile and involved. Every time I do something related to a blog, I think it’s a pleasure for me, even though it takes a lot of time. But this time is cool, it gives me a lot of satisfaction. Moreover, it allows me to meet a lot of wonderful and inspiring people who, in their ways, motivate me.
I am writing today about it, because it also happens that I have my concerns and dilemmas. They concern everyday life and what I should focus on. I have a lot of ideas and on the one hand, I do everything to implement them, but on the other, some priorities always win. Sometimes there are some proposals for me, that probably I should accept, but for now, I bet on my passion for Montessori philosophy and the development of my children so we could grow as a family. Even so, dilemmas always accompany us and make us think realistically so that the reason takes precedence.
However, I am responsible for realizing and fulfilling my dreams, right here and now. I am trying to be the best mom I can still be, to organize myself to serve my family and children in the best way I can and strive for goals, step by step. I know how much I can get involved in projects that affect my passion.
The same applies to the education of my children: trying to nurture their spirit with what they’re looking for, to devote my time to them being present when they need me, to make life lasting memories together.
By putting it down written into words and then translating into images and blog posts, it takes a lot of time, efforts and attention to all the details. These details play a big role, not only when running a blog, but also every day. They make us able to see the beauty and enjoy what we have. I appreciate my everyday life, which can be unique. It depends only on how we spend our time. Let’s take care of every element of our day, and above all, to put the efforts on the relations we make that are the most important.
I would really enjoy hearing from you about what are your biggest wishes and if the work that you actually do, really passionate you? Let me know in comments below!
Warm wishes to all of you!
