Monday Sparks

 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.


Here is our Sparks post for today

Excellent Spark and a really good reminder. Actually a similar theme to our Spark for today. Stinky is resting up for tomorrow’s adventure. Sawyer sends Noelle oodles of love and whisker kisses.

That is a lovely spark! We are taught to think of others first, but this is a good reminder that if you are not good to yourself, you'll not be any good to anyone else.

Excellent spark- great advice. XO

That's a great SPARK. Sometimes we're so busy being kind to others that we forget to be kind to ourselves - if we're not happy, it's hard to be happy WITH and FOR others!

Hugs, Pam
