SPARKS On Monday

Standard

Sparks on Monday Blog Hop is the wonderful idea hatched by our good friend and wonderful writer Annie McGuffy………….her thought is that if more people would share an uplifting, inspiring thought, idea, experience with others, it just might give someone else the SPARK they need to carry on – move forward – try a new way of looking at life or just give them a BETTER day!

I loved the idea and we are hoping that SPARKS work to bring the power of positivity into everyone’s life as they join in or participate in this BLOG HOP of Annie’s.   If you think you just might have a thought you’d like to share, hop over to McGuffy’s Reader by clicking the SPARKS graphic above – join in the Blog Hop and be a part of this “power” !

This is my SPARK for this Monday – this truly speaks to me in many ways but it’s ALWAYS been my belief that people cross our path for a reason – we learn from them, we’re inspired by them, we change because of them, or we simply are touched in some way by meeting them.   They may be in our life for a minute, an hour, or longer – it matters not – but our lives are touched and sometimes only after they are gone do we realize something in OUR lives is different because of them.

I have to admit, I’ve had some truly tough lessons learned at the hands of others in my many years but I LEARNED from the negative and reached out for more positive because of those lessons.   Just be OPEN………you may be surprised by the realization that every person you meet is bringing you SOMETHING………..

Happy Monday!

    • Is it? I had NO IDEA!!!! It’s a great first name…….I bet there’s a good story about that too. Glad you liked my SPARKS today – I know and have known for a long time that we meet people for a reason and I always an OPEN to understanding the reason – sometimes it’s instantanteous understanding but other times it’s AGES after I’ve lost touch with someone that I have an “AHA!” moment. I love surprises! I also love being part of SPARKS.

      Hugs, Pam

    • Glad you like the holiday look! So easy to switch themes on WordPress for the holiday – hope they turn on the snow soon too! Yes – we do meet people for a reason and sometimes we really don’t know what the reason is until later when it HITS US like a ton of bricks. Interesting isn’t it?

      Love, Pam

    • Glad you like it Pix…….YEARS ago I read “The Celestine Prophecy” and it got me thinking about meeting people for a reason……I truly believe that we do. That book wasn’t just about THAT but it did make me stop and think!!

  2. Wow how true and the worst part of all is not only have others done it to me but I remember when i did it to others and also to myself.

  3. Oh do we very much agree with this quote. Thank you for sharing it and reminding us
    Sometimes a blogging friend disappears and we why. Mom will remember something valuable she learned from them or perhaps something they exchanged that help them both. We crossed paths for a reason

    • But even THAT is a little bit of magic….an encounter you may have forgotten about or a conversation you had with a stranger or friend – it can come BACK at you out of the blue and even THAT is pretty cool in itself. We meet people for a reason which we don’t always “get” at the time!

      Love, Pam

    • If life were ALL easy, we might be happy but would we be better people than if we worked our way there? I don’t think so……At 70 I can say I’m glad for every challenge I’ve had and hope to keep getting them………

      Hugs, Pam
