Time for a little SPARK to start the week. This Blog Hop was the idea of our hostess, Annie of McGuffy’s Reader and the purpose is to bring a little inspiration, a little light, a SPARK, to everyone who reads our thoughts on how to make life better for ourselves AND those around us in some way. We don’t just make our way through life FOR OURSELVES – we make it WITH others so why not try to brighten that sometimes dark path we all travel with a happy or inspirational thought??
If you’d like to join us with a SPARK of your own – please do……….just click on Annie’s graphic above and you’ll go to her blog where you can not only read her SPARK for today but join in the Blog Hop by providing the link to your own blog……..share some light this week with all of us!
Since it’s the week before Christmas, my SPARK this week reflects that fact………and while it’s a simple graphic with a simple message, it can change the coming holiday for everyone around you. I present my SPARK with a smile this week because smiling in itself can change your day or someone else’s so SMILE and enjoy this week before the celebration of Christmas…………..

It’s the THOUGHT that counts!
Charlie Brown and Snoopy are very smart. We should always take their advice.
Love and licks,
Cupcake

HA! Charles Schultz has always been one of my FAVORITES – the Peanuts characters have always felt like my best friends for so very many years. They are the kind of characters that are the most “real” to me in this world of people trying to be what they are not. This was a GREAT Sparks Monday all the way around wasn’t it? Lots of wonderful thoughts……such a GREAT Hop Annie!

That is a very important message – if only every one would do just that, what a beautiful world we would have. Mom helped a very elderly gentleman find an item on the shelf at the grocery store today when he seemed to be struggling. It was such a little thing to do, took no time at all, but gave Mom a very warm feeling to be able to help.

Little things to us can be BIG things to others – my Mom did that same thing for a lady in a motorized grocery cart last weekend. She was struggling to stand to reach something and Mom got it for her. Lending a helping hand is a small thing for most of us but the effect on others is HUGE!!
