The Most Wonderful Time of Year
When I was a little girl, every year immediately following Thanksgiving dinner, my mind would automatically go to one thing, Christmas time. I would beg my grandparents to get down the Christmas tree and ornaments so we could decorate them that night. After a wait, my grandpa would pull down the ladder the attic and climb up. Each year I would ask to go up to help, but would always be told no, my grandma was always sure that I would fall down the ladder.

Family...What Family?
Christmas is right around the corner and I'm looking forward for some well-deserved R&R alone. According to a YouGov study, 11 percent of Americans spent the holidays solo. More specifically, holidays that different people celebrate in the month of December. Recently, one of my coworkers asked what my plans are for Christmas. I replied that I was planning on spending them alone. He told me that I needed people during the holidays, but I insisted and expressed that I wanted to spend them all by myself. While his kind gesture was well-intentioned, it's okay for me to be alone.

The Role of Music in Healing the Wounds of Love
Healing Power of Music Being the food of love, it is suggested that music can foster love, and thus can repair the wounds inflicted by love. But it is not only the wounds that lovers inflict on one another, and those caused by lovers of individuals. A literary study of the relationship between music and love presents a new type of narration that ties music to lovesickness. In my contribution, I want to examine the specific conversations that various genres of music offer concerning music’s healing capacity with a focus on music. Music can heal wounds, especially by promoting solidarity and group cohesion says Richard Hovan.

Navigating Love, Affection, and Intimacy at Work
Life in an office has long been synonymous with productivity, collaboration, and focus. We are, though, humans, and we carry our feelings, our relationships, and our home lives into this space.

From a sweet hug to an unexpected kiss, one sweetheart’s excitement and passion may break out at work. And the actual question is just how much from you is too much? How can we maintain the kinds of measures that keep the workplace a safe, respectful, functional space — without denying our humanity?

A Christmas Morning of Sausages, Bacon, and Love. Runner-Up in Tales of Hearth Challenge.
Angelika woke with a smile to the smell of sausages and bacon cooking. It was hardly the most traditional Christmas breakfast but had always been a much-loved aspect of a Higley family Christmas. "Nothing better than starting the festivities off with a nice hearty breakfast, darling," her father said every year. Although she was now, at 15, a little old to be getting up before dawn to shake and rattle presents under the tree, she still loved this day and time of the year. "Angel, breakfast's up!" called her mother, breaking the silence, she was enjoying.

The Bropeachment
“We need to arrange a family meeting,” Mom declared, her tone leaving no room for argument. She set about calling and texting our relatives, inviting them to come to our place. Blessed with a commanding presence, combined with the intellectual heft of a well-trained lawyer, people tended to do what she asked. I had to track down Jason, who had moved into the UW dorm last year, and talk him into attending.
