Tolkien and Loss

I’ve argued elsewhere that one of the most important themes in Tolkien’s work is loss. Loss of technological ability, loss of lifespan, loss of population, loss of — well, let’s not put too fine a point on it — grace, something that might have resonated with Tolkien’s Catholicism and (I think) inherent pessimism.

Don't believe everything that you breathe.

Save your outrage, and pause to consider that every other social is doing everything they can to amplify it because outrage is good for their bottom line. #CoSoRocks

If you would like to support Ukraine still please look into spending money with St. Javelin. They are doing the lords work.

I think music helps.

People will hate you, rate you, break you, and shake you

How strong you stand is what makes you

It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog

And even if I don't have a dog in the fight
They ain't never gonna get rid of the fight in the dog

Today, I recited this poem to every one of my classes.
Every veteran who serves writes a check to his country, signed in his life's blood, when he enlists. For the lucky ones, like me, the check is handed back when your service is complete. For too many others, it is cashed in, and they lie where they fell, serving their homeland, all over the world. Yet - they went anyway.
