Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost . . .

Posted December 31, 2015

 

I love quotes . . . always have, always will.  Sometimes a particularly meaningful or beautiful set of words will stop me in my tracks as I ponder the significance.  The quote will be read over and over again, mulled over and over again, and then committed to memory (hopefully).  The power of words never fails to amaze me.  And the power of words can be very scary when they espouse bigotry and hate.  I have a rather large "Words of Wisdom and Profundity" board on Pinterest.  No hate there . . . although a great quote I love says, "A truly great library has something to offend everyone."  So maybe some people will find something offensive in it.  Hey, it is what it is.

WHEW!!!  It is a lot of work to develop a new web site (and to keep another one going).  The making of the jewelry is the easy part.  It's the photographing, photo editing, deciding which pictures to use and in what order, writing each description filled with good SEO and captioning each photo, all these take up so much time.  Not to mention all the promoting that needs to be done afterwards so the new, one of a kind jewelry can actually be found!  WHEW - makes me tired!
