Hello Friends! It's been a while. How are you? I hope you've been enjoying the new year.
I've been busy here pulling together all of the contributions to the listening anthology. This will take a while, but I'm looking forward to sharing these fabulous works from more than 50 creative contributors! The collection, The Art of Listening, will be available as a free ebook later this year. I'll keep you posted as publication gets closer.
I've also been enjoying reading and pondering over the stories, poems, and photographs in the latest issue of Ponder Review, andI'm thankful to have two of my photographs included, with one selected for the cover. Find the photos below, along with one that offers a light candle meditation.
On the cover is my photo: Small World Meditation.
Also published in this issue: A Little Poet Tree House (The doorway —with its tiny hinge between rushing by and pausing to wonder, dream, and appreciate the little things—was so small that I almost walked right by it.)
While we're pondering together, I'll share another meditative photo: Centering (which I enhanced to bring out the candle's glow).

I enjoyed the meditative aspects of focusing on these subjects and I hope you have, too.
Wishing you peaceful reflections and magical dreams,
