For this year's anthology, we wanted to find the beauty behind the ugly, the happiness blended in the sadness, the light within the shadows. And our authors did not let us down. If we walk through life enjoying the experiences, maybe our problems would turn into puzzles we could solve? As you travel through the pages, look deep into your soul and ask yourself a few of these questions. Perhaps we can help you find the good through the rain. Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations.
