Mine is still petering! I also have another spark, I think they call it the spark of wiseness, and another one flickering in the shadow of its own light called spark of happiness, and sparkling all over bouncing from one spark to another, the spark of sanity balance and compassion, and in between all those crackles the sparks of tolerance blind us all, and among all those shiny sparks one stand out forgotten by most, you guessed it, it’s the spark of humanity!

Bitterness is too energy consuming, yet is difficult to shed …. but the shedding leads to a new beginning.

I don’t think any bitterness was intended in Ape’s quote…But I wish him new beginnings, many more.

I realized I never internalized human attributes as sparks but have never lived anywhere where the sparks weren’t mentioned. It finally makes sense to me. Thank you 🙂
