SPARK on Monday. It’s that time again! “SPARKS” was started by Annie McGuffy of McGuffy’s Reader but ended when she stopped blogging 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. Although Annie isn’t currently blogging, a lot of us who enjoyed her SPARKS decided to keep posting SPARKS of our own. Why? Because 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 your own SPARK on your blog and let everyone know you have…….we get energy from each other that way.
I know we’ve all heard these lyrics before – but more than once this last year or two I’ve heard people refer to them – and now more than ever I find that I’m thinking them and keeping them close to my heart.
that would be great… and even if John was a dreamer and we are dreamers too, dreams can become true… it can happen…

It sure can…….so we must continue to dream and hope and I know MOST of us will!

Oh, Pam, what a spark. We loved John Lennon’s message and hope so much that Jill Biden will make a difference with her visit to Ukraine and that anyone who watched the Russian celebration yesterday noted that the marching soldiers were OUT OF STEP, sloppy, nothing like a marching army. It was fascinating…their heads kept turning right and left as if they were not at ALL in the celebration.

John Lennon’s song has always touched my heart and I think more than ever – now. The world is crying for peace and we all long for the day when it’s not a dream – but a reality.
Love, Pam

One thing nobody can take away from us is our imagination…and our imagination maybe brings peace and love to the world – we just need the world to cooperate and BE THAT WAY!

If only leaders and their supporters realized this …. that we are on the same page … that we have much more in common than differences .. but not – we emphasize selfishness through power and control. Good one, Pam!
