Hello Monday SPARK friends! “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.
The holidays are sneaking up on us – Thanksgiving then Christmas or any other holiday you may celebrate. It’s a perfect time to reflect on life and what means a lot to us…..most of us say “family” ……………………I say “peace”………………. There’s a lot of hustle and bustle associated with the holidays but in those moments of quiet – think about what peace means to you and how valuable it REALLY is!
Hugs, Pam

that’s true… we should sell t-shirts with this spark in front of wallyworld on black furryday… or better not… the crowd there is like a steamroller and we end pancaked LOL

That’s a good point – one of the most dangerous spots on Black Friday would be outside a WalMart store (or the trashure store!!).

That is a good Spark, but it is very difficult in these times.

It is…sometimes we have to work EXTRA hard to reach our goals (you and I know that!).

So true, but not always easy to do! Good Morning!

Yes indeed but it’s a really GREAT “goal” to have and often leads to that peace we all want to have.
GOOD MORNING! Pam

Yes, yes, yes… I have to be the peace that calms my heart. I have to be the one that doesn’t let my heart close. An open heart = peace. A most excellent Spark, Pam! ♥

Oh Teddy this is one that has to be practiced. I ‘think’ as I have become younger I have learned to let go of worries out of my control, so that my mind is at peace, but some days it is hard.

Yes, be still…think about lovely things, and what really and truly matters, not the worldly junk and craziness, filled with greed and avarice.
Have a grateful heart; that brings more peace than one could imagine!
