A Little Good News (Song, Anne Murray)

Hello Grafted In Reader,


Today is Wednesday, Dec. 11, 2024, in my corner of blog land.

First, thanks to you if you read and liked my latest story, Love You Each, posted at spillwords.com this past Friday. I had over 65 readers like the story; again, thanks from all over my heart!


Second, My wife and I returned two days ago from visiting our son and his family in another state. The flight was full both ways, people were generally considerate and courteous! So were we, too. It was a pleasant visit and our grandsons are alive and well!


Third, my published book, Human Being Human Doing, will soon become unavailable. I am moving toward short story fiction in anthologies, and making plans to create two chapbooks featuring 2-3 short stories each in the coming two years. Stay tuned please!


Finally, as December is noted to have over 20 international holidays within the 31 days, I was delighted to see this news headline in my inbox today from "The Christian Science Monitor" newsletter.

Monitor Highlights

Boston broke a record last year for fewest homicides. It’s on track to do it again.


We each have brokenness as part of life, and times like this holiday period may exacerbate the awareness of our individual and collective brokenness. May the Holy One, blessed be He, guide us through our broken parts of life, and renew a right spirit within each of us.


Thank you for dropping by, and feel free to leave a comment or hello. This blog is one opportunity to experience connected.


Happy Season,

Mellow Rock
