Monday Sparks





 Even though McGuffy's reader is taking a break, we continue 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.

We remember all who served and observe the silence at 11am.

Without all those brave men and women none of our countries would have any freedom at all. War is such a horrible thing I wish it would end.

That is a terrific Spark. Mom did not post about Veterans' Day, for probably the first time ever. Had she been able to visit the place she wanted P&S to visit tomorrow, she would have. She guesses that will have to wait for another time. Sawyer sends Noelle all his love and oodles of paw hugs. Stinky can't wait to see Periwinkle tomorrow.
