GRATITUDE & AN OVERHEARD CONVERSATION

Sparks

A few days ago, I saw a terrific quote about aging. Unfortunately I did not copy it, and have been unable to find it again. When searching I found the following quote about gratitude, which “spoke” to me.

 

A quote from Darby Stanchfield on gratitude, "When I'm grateful for all the blessings, it puts away all the stress about things not in my control. It helps me create perspective by just focusing on being grateful. Take that moment twice a day with yourself." This is on a yellow background with pastel flowers.

 

The author of today’s Spark, Darby Leigh Stanchfield is a 52-year-old, American actress.

Sparks is the creation of Annie from McGuffy’s Reader. It began as a blog hop, created by our friend. Annie stated when she began Sparks, “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.”

Overheard Conversation:

Cooper Murphy: “Kizmet have you seen Periwinkle? I think she’s late.”

Kizmet: “No, I haven’t. Hey, Stinky, where’s Periwinkle? I was hoping we could have a little girl talk today.”

Stinky: “Is this some kind of April Fool’s Day joke? You two are a day early. She comes on Tuesdays. And if you stick yourselves in the teleportation tunnel tomorrow, you are going to get a face full of grey, tabby fur accompanied by black eyes and broken noses. That tunnel is powerful!”

Cooper Murphy: “Yikes, that sounds dreadful! And it’s no joke, we just got our days mixed up. And I sure am happy we did.”

That’s right, tomorrow is the special day when Periwinkle and Stinky set out on a new adventure. Stinky has his thinking cap on, and here’s hoping he comes up with a great plan for tomorrow. And here’s hoping that tunnel is available when Periwinkle arrives. I know your tabby adventurers will be looking for you tomorrow.
