Where has the spark gone?

)arrow I was just talking with Sabine, who is pregnant. It was 10 years ago that our paths crossed for the first time in the Bahamas. We were GOs, then, partying all the time and not worrying too much about what was to come. Where has time gone? How could ten years have already lapsed when it seems like just yesterday?

Mr. Keating said in Dead Poets Society « Make your lives extraordinary ». Am I missing the bus? What has become of me? Extraordinary always seems to fade out and be replaced by a dull, grey routine. Time does its trick and if you sit in the same spot long enough, it kills the spark in you.

The spark. How I need it now. And how inaccessible it appears. How fugitive. What will revive it? Does a spark need a spark?

    Well it depends on how you describe a spark... I like to sparkLE all of the time. I find it helps if you blurt things out when they come to your head. Jumping up and down in random places also works - the stares you provoke should help! sometimes spark is in the contrasting colors of bouganvillea (sp)? I think you have that flower in the caymans? Another amazing thing that sparkS my interest: taking your dog or any dog for a walk... After leaving a pile, make sure there is a crowd around, then pick it up (with a bag of course). Just from doing this, I have been blessed - to me its really funny that some god might give a CRAP about me picking up dog doo. Any sparks yet?
