Sparks

Annie of McGuffy’s Reader is hosting Sparks, an inspirational and positive thought for the week link-up, every Monday.

“The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be.” Source: Marcel Pagnol

    • I thought they were too. Not often you see a dog and cat get along so well. You have a fantastic week too. 🙂

      • Our cats and dogs generally get along. Purrseidon’s surrogate mom was Saphera (dog) and many of her friends are canines… Mr. M tolerates most dogs, too, but draws the line at Ms. Cricket, a cockapoo, who lives down the street … he would like her just fine if she didn’t want to lick the stuffings out of him.

  1. Thank you, my friend. You always make me smile and warm my heart & soul. I love the Sparks. It really hits home. And the picture. Aww…Shelties and kittens are a special combination. Big hugs! <3

    • You’re most welcome, Annie. I so love doing both Awww Mondays and Sparks. I look forward to finding some quote that is either a reminder or something I already do. Sometimes it’s something I need to do. Big hugs back. ♥

    • I would love to have these two. What fun it would be. Thanks of the Spark. Sometimes we need to live in the moment. 🙂

  2. Sandee,

    Excellent Aww Monday moment! Ah, good quote! I say be happy where you are. You can’t change the past and tomorrow hasn’t happened, so live in the now and be happy! Have a spakletastic week.

  3. Now there are two very cute youngins. Bet they have such fun together. Sandee, you and Zane have a super Monday.

    • I’m sure that they do. Probably were babies together and that’s why they get along so well. You have a super Monday too, Marg. 🙂

    • Slobbery is something else where dogs are concerned. I so remember. I’m glad you like the Sparks. Love back. 🙂

  4. AWWW is right ~ the doggie and kitty are so adorable and precious ~ a miracle to start the week ~ Xxx

    Happy Day to you,

    • We love to start the week off with an Awww. It’s the best way to face money. Happy day to you too. Scritches to Zoe. 🙂

    • Mondays always need a bright spot. I so remember dragging myself off to work. 🙂

  5. “You know, when we grow up, we don’t have to fight like cats and dogs. We can be Best Friends Forever!”

    Spark: Beware of “Destination Addiction” – a preoccupation with the idea that happiness is in the next place, the next job, or with the next partner. Until you give up the idea that happiness is always someplace else, it will never be where you are.” – Unknown

    • I knew someone like that. Always something better to come along. As far as I know he’s still waiting. Love it. 🙂

    • Miss Lucy gets whatever Miss Lucy wants. It’s that simple. You, Russell and Miss Lucy have a wonderful week too. Now I’m sick. Really sick. 🙂

  6. Great quote, and adorable picture. Kittens that grow up with dogs make great cats. Buddy The Cat did NOT grow up with dogs.

    • I’ve never had a pup and a kitty at the same time. It wouldn’t have worked out. 🙂

  7. Ooooh, you share amazing photographs of such purrfectly and beautiful woof Woof pets! Love the Sparks! Always such a pleasure to be here with everyone. The hubby is sick with bronchitis and I made him stay home today. His meds should start working and it was cold and snowy outside so….taking a leisure morning enjoying tea and coffee and just having a nice quiet time. I love your meme’s here and appreciate you a bunch for always linking me in when I am early! Hee Hee ! Have a blessed and very beautiful week. HUGS

    • It’s good to have you here too, Anne. I enjoy it when you post a picture of an Awww and I love to hear what you and yours are up to. I also love the pictures of your grands. Hugs back. 🙂

  8. Awww ~~ Wonderful find, Sandee. Looks like the Sheltie pup and the kitten have become good friends. I’m not sure though, that it goes so far as to share the blanket.
    Have a nice week, Sandee. 🙂

    • I understand that if they are raised together they may get along. I’ve never tired having a kitty and a pup. I’ve know many that do though. You have a nice week too, Jim. 🙂

  9. Thanks for hooking us up here. That photo above definitely evokes isn “awww” from us. XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy and Sawyer

  10. oh, it’s Monday already! Love Mondays cuz you always have the cutest pics. Like today. They are adorable.

    • Starting off the week with a smile is a fun thing to do. Mondays used to be my least favorite day of the week. Now that I’m retired everyday is either Saturday or Sunday. 🙂

  11. Your Awww photo is so sweet, kitties and puppies make the best of friends! <3 Your Sparks quote is right on target, even if we don’t see our past as wonderful, it was comfortable because it was familiar and we tend to get stuck on what is familiar. While it’s true that the present can be difficult, and the future can be scary, I have learned that if we take life ONE DAY at a time, we will always be given what we need to get through it and if we maintain an attiude of openness to what we can learn from it we will be blessed. Every day is a good day if we make up our minds for it to be! I figure if God has kept me going for 64 years, He will take care of me to the end of my journey here, no matter how the path unfolds. Faith gives us hope! Have a wonderful week, Sandy! <3

    • What a wonderful way to look at life. It’s spot on Josie. Thanks for weighing in. You have a wonderful week, too. 🙂

    • Yep, once they are friends all is right with the world. Sometimes it’s not easy being friends for dogs and cats. Yes the quote is so true. You have a quotetastic AM, too. 🙂

  12. When I was a child I had a dog & cat that loved each other just like this picture.
    We got them when they were both weaned, so they grew up with each other 🙂

    Hope you are having an awesome Monday.

    • Apparently that is key to them getting along and sometimes that doesn’t even work. I’m sick today with a sinus infections so I’ve had betters days. This is day four of feeling awful. 🙂

    • Yes the quote is spot on. I too love to see cats and dogs playing together. 🙂

  13. The Australian Shepherd has something to say about all this cuteness and I’m not sure he’s pleased. I think the kitty will eventually rule the roost though. Sorry about my long post today, but there is a kind of Awww, that cat is going to eat your dinner moment at the end.

  14. Awwwww Sandee 🙂
    This picture made me smile and feel warm and fuzzy. I’m loving this quote from Marcel Pagnol, it’s very very true.
    Have a great week my friend.

    • You so the same, Mary. I like it that I made you smile. I hope your back is better. 🙂

  15. Oh, Sandee ~ lots of distant reiki healing hugs to you ~ Sinus infection is soooo uncomfortable ~ be well soon!

    Happy Day to you,

    • Thank you, Carol. I feel pretty miserable. Better today, but I’ve along way to go. Scritches to Zoe. 🙂

    • I know of lots of dogs and cats that get along. It’s a beautiful thing. 🙂

    • Yes they do. I think they are most adorable. You have a wonderful day too. 🙂

    • I thought they were a most adorable little couple of furrbabies. You have a wonderful day too. 🙂

    • It doesn’t matter what day we get our Awww as long as we do. I think these two are off to a good start. 🙂

    • I think they know it too. It’s good to have you back after your long absence. 🙂

  16. I’m often guilty of that wise quote’s words. ~sigh~ Thank you for sharing. And your photos are always amazing, top to bottom. Be well!

    • I think we’ve all been guilty of this one from time to time. I know I have. You be well too, Darla. 🙂

    • Thank you, Michelle. I love doing this exercise each Monday. It reminds us what is important and what is not. 🙂

  17. I never knew dogs and cats would get a long like they do until I brought Lily into my home as Dakotas pet!!! Him being the only one for 10 yrs I took a chance in even thinking he needed a playmate but to pick the one I picked and taking that chance was something else all on its own. It totally warms my heart to see them lay today, or play together. They have brought so much happiness to my life.Great pic.

  18. Cute babies! I bet they’re a lot of fun! I like your spark too. I’m learning to live in the moment and it’s made me way happier than worrying about the past or being anxious about the future. 🙂

    Hope you’re having a great week! Mine is slow. And busy. Did I mention slow? Ugh.

    • I know you’ll be happy when tax season is over this year. I always think about you during this time of year. I also know you’re living in the moment. You need to go to your happy place. 🙂

    • They are a couple of cuties that seem to like each other. I love it when pups and kitties like to hang out together. 🙂

  19. That spark is so true. Too many people look back on their lives and think they should have made different decisions to have a better life, when at the time they made the only decision that was available to them at the time. We need to take the time to really be in the present and be thankful for that.

    • I agree. I’m thankful for every day I have. I’ve made some great decisions and I’m made some poor decisions, but those decisions made me what I am today. I’m good with that. 🙂

    • I love it when they get along. It’s rare for some and normal for others. 🙂
