Dancing In The Moonlight (''70s song)

Hello Grafted In Reader,

Today is April 21, 2026 in my corner of blog land. Early Happy Earth Day to you!

Would that the cease fire continue in the current war involving Israel, Iran, United States, and anyone else who's up for fighting.

I chose the song title for this post because it's spring in my hemisphere, and Fall or autumn in another. However, here in my part of the USA, we have had spring temps interspersed with continued winter temps too. Bring on the warm temps Mom Nature.


How was National Reading Month for you?

I had a book promo for my titles at Draft2Digital a couple weeks ago, and three titles were selected. Thank you, if you are one such purchaser!


I am currently reading, Murder On Trinity Place, by the late Victoria Thompson. I have two more titles by her waiting in the wings; she is a very good story teller and entertainer!


Have you visited with me at My Substack? It's still free to do so.

Until next time, may the Lord continue to bless and keep us.

My Worth Is Not In What I Own (Acoustic, The Gettys)

Hello Grafted In Readers, Over the weekend, My wife and I were listening to, Great Hymns of Faith, from UCB Canada. An acoustic song for which this post is titled was played and the words are worth pondering. The artists, Keith and Kristyn Getty have a pure sound, an acoustic/folk music type of blend. I jotted down the lyrics, but hope you will take this a step further and listen for yourself as the song is on YouTube. "My worth is not in what I own, not in the strength of flesh and bone. But at the costly warmth of love, at the cross. "My worth is not in skill or make, win or lose, pride or shape; but in the blood of Christ that flows, at the cross." Note, I did jot down the lyrics from the recording and that is what I'm sharing with you! Kevod Yeheveh, may we value YHVH and find him to be truly beyond worth and beyond measure! Mellow Roc

From My Red Chair (Mellow Rock)

Hello Grafted In Readers, Today is June 5, 2025 in my corner of blog land. For a few posts, we are going to touch on mental health. Basically, find wisdom from reputable places to help our own understanding of God-given mental health. I have a book that will be released in a few months of five short stories. Each has a situation related to mental health of the character or characters. Its title, From My Red Chair" the same as this 'mini-series.' Our first observation, today, is pasted from the National Institute of Mental Health, NIMH. Thankfully, this agency still exists! OBSERVATION Mental health includes emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It is more than the absence of a mental illness—it’s essential to your overall health and quality of life. Note: Hmm, mental health is more than the absence of mental illness. That's my takeaway from this snippet. If you'd like to share your takeaway from this, please comment. I will be back to share another obser...

Sussudio (Phil Collins, '80s hit)

Hello Grafted In Readers, Today is Monday August 4, 2025 in my corner of blog-land. Mild weather is are lot these summer days. Mostly sunny, too. I heard the Phil Collins song, Sussudio, played on a station from northern Michigan earlier today, UPS 98.5. Looking up the title, it is said to mean something and nothing at the same time; It is allusion to a girl that Phil Collins liked, or fantasy of loving an older woman, according to online info. I have a couple expletivies that are self-made but can only recall them when the mood is exactly right. One is 'gosh darnit'. Another is, O) sugarfoot. How is your self-made vocabulary list? Go ahead, share one or two in the comments. Until next time, God bless and keep us. Mellow Rock David C. Russell
