Spark
To perform like a "star", to steal the show, and to party with the "Gods"...
Take the stage, do the dance, and invite yourself.
Be the spark!;-)

GT2008
Every year my friend Sybil puts together a girl's trip. Some years only 3 or 4 people will be able to make it and other years 15 people will go. The trips are always fun with lots of memories made and lots and lots of laughter!! The trips have been in Dallas, Arizona, Seattle, Austin, and other cities I can't remember at the moment. This year the trip was in Austin (easy for me this year :)!) As always we had a great time and lots of laughs! This year our really good friend, Pauline was not able to make it. This was the first girl's trip she has missed. A few months ago she was diagnosed with throat cancer. We missed you Pauline and all our prayers and thoughts are with you!!!
Very True!!!
I stole this from my husband's blog, paulsthisandthat.blogspot.com, shhh. I really love this.....
I got this in an email several years ago and went back to find it. It was part of a chain mail (well sort of) but I think it had a real cool message.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America contest.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for Best Actor and Actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series Winners.
How did you do?
The point is, none of us remembers the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They're the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten.
Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Now here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
6. Name half a dozen heroes whose stories have inspired you.
Easier, ain't it?
The lesson:
The people who make a difference in our lives aren't the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They're the ones who care. So lets acknowledge them and appreciate what they do for us simply by letting them know that we too care.
