Happy Monday! Time for an inspirational thought – a little something to get us through another week. Everyone is invited to participate by posting their OWN thoughts on their blogs – SPARKS inspire all of us! “SPARKS” was started by Annie McGuffy of McGuffy’s Reader but ended when her blog was hacked some time ago. It was meant to be a way to start out each week with with a meaningful thought – something that spoke to each of us and hopefully everyone else who read it. Sometimes we need a little “spark” in our lives and these posts were meant to at least be a PART of that effort. Please feel free to post a SPARK of your own on your blog and let everyone know you have…….we get energy from each other that way!
Spent my weekend thinking about how lucky I am to have positive people in my life. I owe a LOT to them really. I’m so grateful for them too because not only have they become my best friends, but they are (to quote a line from a song) “the wind beneath my wings” – and that’s what UPLIFTING is all about after all!
Treasure the friends who bring you joy and positive moments in your life. Everyone needs that – whether they realize it or not!

You are such a wonderful friend and I know I’m not speaking just for myself when I say, friends are HARDY and can “take it”…..whether it’s as a sounding board, a shoulder to cry on, an ear to hear complaints or just share a thought or two. What a different life we would have without friends. I don’t ever want to know!
Love, Pam

Agree. For a long time I’ve siad that the hardest decision in life is figuring out what to do when I grown up … must the most important decision one makes is the choices they make in people to be around. You saying for the spark fits! Have a good week, Pam!

Thanks Frank and hope your week is good as well….Friends are more than acquaintances – they hold us up as we hold them up – the proverbial two-way street. My friends are more like family.
