Happy Monday. Time for SPARKS to fly………….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!
I found a SPARK that I REALLY TRULY mean…………now I have to say that when I look for a SPARK to share it always has to be something that speaks to me – something I agree wholeheartedly with or feel deeply about. I don’t just post something “because” – I do it because it is in my heart and I’m sharing. This SPARK below – oh wow – I love it!
If I’m not mistaken I’ve seen this posted before in somebody else’s SPARK post (or maybe my own!) but I like it so much I wanted to “let it be mine” for today. I’m happy to say that I’m happy with the person I’ve become. Interesting to think about it but I truly AM !
Yup…all the things we have experienced over the years, have molded us into who we actually are. We are kind of like clay in the ‘hands’ of the paths we walk on…

Another lovely Spark, Pam. I have given up worrying about appearance. I am overweight and I dress in clothes that are comfortable. I think I am kind and caring and hope other people find me that way.

It’s good to be happy with who we are. I find myself always working on it, not consciously and consistently but things pop up that make me think. Kindness is definitely in your heart.

It felt good visiting again but a bit harder than I was prepared for after spending so much in hospital when my mom was sick. It’s gonna take some time to not wince at certain situations. It’s early days now for both me and Norman. 🙂

So sorry about that but totally understandable. Those memories are ALWAYS with us just under the surface and being back brings them UP……..time heals.
