Sparks

Cooper Murphy was totally blissed out with the tissue paper from Dad Tom’s Father’s Day gift. That prompted today’s Spark about happiness. Sometimes happiness seems hard to grasp, but Kitties Blue, Dad Tom, my friends and my home make me happy. I pray there is something in each of your lives that makes you happy … purrhaps a kitty or woofie or some other wonderful anipal family member.
The author of today’s Spark, William E Gladstone (1808 – 1898), was a British politician for more than 60 years, including as a member of parliament and Chancellor of the Exchequer. He also served for 12 years as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom over four non-consecutive terms.
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.”

Such a great spark, and Cooper Murphy’s photo certainly illustrates it well. Hugs to you all, sweet pals.
Today, while driving home by myself from seeing Achilles for the last time (Lucy’s boyfriend is dying), I decided to think happy thoughts. It was my wonderful, caring, loving husband I thought about.
Agreed, choose happy, it’s the best way.
Terrific Spark and the sweetest photo!
Great spark! I like how you tell us about the person who is quoted. Adorable photo too. XO
Anything that features Cooper Murphy is a hit with me. He’s most handsome. Love that Spark and I love Cooper Murphy.
