Memorial Day Sparks

Happy Memorial Day!   Today we honor those who have lost their lives defending our freedom.




Even though McGuffy's reader is taking a break, we are continuing our Monday Sparks posts!  From the original Sparks posts:
Welcome to Sparks. Many years ago, it was my intent to post an inspirational thought each Monday. It would be my weekly meditation, and perhaps feed other people's spirit as well. Life got busy, and this fell by the wayside. Now, I feel a strong need to bring this feature back. 
The negative energy in the world has become thick and oppressive. Social media has become a part of this dark, negative storm. There is an obvious universal need for more positive energy and peace. And, we can all be part of this affirmative change. 
I believe we are meant to be lights in this world. If we allow our light to shine, we can see where we are going. It is then that we can begin to truly see each other clearly. Together, we can light up the entire world!
I hope you will join us. Please link up a positive quote, thought, poem, or verse. The badge and code can be found in my sidebar. Add the badge to your post to invite others. The more, the merrier. I welcome your thoughts. Peace.

JFK left us with some of the most memorable and thoughtful quotes. We salute all who served us so well.

That's a beautiful Memorial Day collage too.

Excellent quote by president Kennedy. Mom says that's one she hadn't heard before. The graphic featuring Allie, Raz and Noelle is purrfect and beautifull. That's one of our favorite photos of, Raz. Mau is sending Allie all is love, purrs and bazillions of smooches. XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy and Sawyer
