Watching the passion of others

As I was sitting thinking about the guilty pleasure shows I watch on TV or netflix etc. The list seemed a mixed bag at first glance:
River monsters
Master chef Junior
Anything with David Attenborrough
Cake boss
sewing shows
 quiltings shows
nature shows
Science shows
And while these are all things I like, what really drives the shows is the passion that the "stars" have for their lives.
 they do what they do because they Love what they do. and the shows are just an externalization of that passion.
They would fish, bake, sew, travel... because that is what they do. And you know even if the cameras all stopped running they would still fish, bake, sew, travel...
My hope is that like all inspiring people there are sparks being ignited by that passion. When I watch those who passionately love teaching I hope that not only do they foster a love of learning but that their passion for what they do sparks other to love teaching.
And the fire is passed along from one person to another.
