Motivation is a funny thing. It comes and goes like the waves of a tide. I have not published as many Mindfunda’s as I set out to do at the beginning of the year.

I agree with you that it is an incredible vague concept. Let’s try to define it in more tangible form.

st. Patrick’s day, three reasons to join the fun
St. Patrick’s Day: History, Snakes, and Shamrocks
St. Patrick’s Day on March 17 celebrates St. Patrick, who brought Christianity to Ireland. Born in Britain, St. Patrick was captured by pirates and spent six years as a slave in Ireland, which led to his spiritual awakening. He used the shamrock to teach the Holy Trinity, and the symbol has become central to the holiday.
Legend says he drove all the snakes out of Ireland, representing the triumph of good over evil. While the snake story is symbolic, it highlights his role in transforming Ireland. On St. Patrick’s Day, we celebrate with shamrocks, wearing green, and reflecting on this fascinating history.
