Enthusiasm

Posted on October 7th, 2005 by Sacha Chua

The source of the word “enthusiasm” comes from the Greek word
enthousiasmos, which ultimately comes from the adjective entheos, “having the god within,”
formed from en, “in, within,” and theos, “god.”

I hope to live life not only with excitement, but with enthusiasm and
passion.
