SPARK on Monday

Happy Monday.    You know what Monday means – SPARKS!  “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.

I found two SPARKS to share today………they both say what I want to say on this day of remembering.

Remember……………and NEVER forget

Hugs, Pam

My SPARK today is about letting go……of a person, a bad experience, even some GOOD experiences – things that become like a weight you’re dragging around – maybe you’ve done something for YEARS but it no longer brings you joy.    Shouldn’t we let those things go?    Don’t they just keep us from moving forward sometimes?   Well I don’t pretend to be a wise sage but I do think that I have learned to move on when I need to.    Took me a lot of years to get to that place but I’m there.      Finally.

I like this – it says what I as trying to say above only BETTER.

I’m not sure what led me to the page of thoughts where I found this one but it spoke to me as some things often do.    So I knew I’d found my SPARK for this week………….

It’s a good SPARK to think about isn’t it.    I think maybe we all know this in our minds, but at the time we just concentrate on how HARD it is not that it’s RIGHT.

Sometimes when looking for a SPARK I read something that was not even on my MIND until I saw the words……………like this for instance:

Yep – I think that’s why in my life I’ve often left the beaten path and explored further along the edges or even DEEP into the woods!    I don’t regret that either.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what feeling “content” means.    In my late 70s now I think it’s safe to say that I am really enjoying contentment in my life.   Wasn’t always sure I’d ever REALLY have it but knowing where contentment can be found without having to look too far did the trick for me.   I just looked around me and there it was.

Thanks to my husband, family, friends and faith I DO know contentment……………for real.

Love, Pam
