Our next online issue “Sanctuaries and Places of Peace” will be launched in mid-May.  (This is only a delay of 2 weeks.)  I am especially thrilled and honored to curate this issue.  Our world needs welcoming, peaceful spaces, where we can hit the pause button, take a deep breath, and find nourishment for the heart.  I hope that you enjoy our next issue.  We have a varied collection of poems and fine art photography on this theme.

Until then, please enjoy the gentle lead up to spring.  Find moments of calm and connection in your life.  Celebrate the times when there is quiet after a storm.  I know that we could all use that, right now.  We’ll see you back here on the BHR page in May!
