If we pay attention, our pets can teach us much. A cat can lie on your lap, the floor, or perch on its own little pedestal. It can be still. Doing isn’t called for. Just being is enough. Dogs can teach us forgiveness. Birds—how to sing in the morning. Goldfish? I don’t know about goldfish, unless it’s how to swim without overthinking it.

But back to dogs: I have two humorous, heartwarming children’s books coming out before Christmas. Scruffy, the Grumpy Day Hero: Kindness is his Superpower is a future classic and will be available. December 1^st. Scruffy inspires children. If an often-ignored underdog can be a hero, even the littlest folks can be heroes too. I’m also releasing the second edition of the oh-so-popular Night of Mysteries Blessings: Finding the Light Within. The book now features THE unforgettable SCRUFFY.

If you want to grab a bargain on pre-sales of Scruffy’s stories, or you’d like complimentary coloring pages from both books, just email me, and they’re yours. sally@sallymetzger.com. When I notify you about the presales for each book, look for my traditional subject line: “Living on Purpose.” Thank you so much, dear reader.

It’s Raining Grace!
