To have ideas is to gather flowers. To think is to weave them into garlands.
~ Anne-Sophie Swetchine (1869)
I have ideas and I’m gathering flowers but I’m not quite ready to weave them into garlands just yet.
Beginnings
If you’ve been looking around Bountiful Healing in search of an old post, chances are pretty good that you won’t find it. I’ve privatized most of my posts for now. Someone has been lifting photos. That’s not surprising and I know it’s to be expected. The problem is that I’ve been lazy about how I put them on my blogs, making the full-size photo available when I didn’t intend to. That’s my fault for assuming things I shouldn’t have assumed and for being lazy.
I’ve left The Color Series and a few recent posts. I may add back some more later or I may decide to shut down Bountiful Healing once and for all. Whether I keep Bountiful Healing open or not, you’ll still be able to find me posting regularly at Life in the Bogs (where I also need to make some changes in how I post photos but that won’t be quite as drastic as what I’m doing here).
For now I’m considering it an almost-fresh start here at Bountiful Healing and we’ll see how it goes. 🙂

The unknown is what it is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that … Accept that it’s unknown, and it’s plain sailing.
~ John Lennon
Be willing to be a beginner every single morning.

… when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that’s present — love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us pleasure — the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth.
