      Tolkien did indeed create a whole world, but it is a parallel world. Every part in his work is symbolism of The Holy Bible.
      Marvelous indeed is how just as The Bible has within it, countless examples of manifold wisdom. Tolkien (hid) if you will, countless gems within his work. So that even those that are wise above the wisest lf men are still enamored by it.
      2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
      Hebrews 13:2 KJV

      Renewal from within is the answer for me.
      I am new again today in reading a sacred text (Bagavad Gita) and being at my alter and doing my small silence…
      I desire too much food… to much talk… to much TH-cam… too much sleep and too much exertions when I am active…
      But 5 minutes of silent breathing and a few moments thinking upon my truths…
      And I am drunk with the nectar of what I truly long for.

    I discovered the Lord of The Rings in my first year of college, and woe was me. I could not put it down, and how I got through my first semester examinations I do not know. Perhaps the ability to appreciate Tolkien confers something that transcends even the most prosaic, naturalistic and mechanistic of subjects (engineering in my case, something which Tolkien would not have appreciated). I've lost count of the number of times I've read his book. The pleasure of doing so has changed of course, nothing matches that first encounter, but there's always some new realisation, a fresh insight, that makes the twentieth rereading worthwhile. Tom Shippey is just the ticket for an educated, disciplined view on the enormous literate deposit to our culture that is Tolkien. It is a badge of honour that Amazon fired him from it's attempt to recontextualise Tolkien to today's barbarities.

I've drifted a lot from the innocent Hobbit I was back in the day. Hope to return to the shire again one day (inner peace with myself). School and it's uncertainty is like Mordor.

    "I have found that it is the small everyday deed of ordinary folks that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love". I wish peoples could remember that, there is so much peoples that think humanity is inherently bad because of all the loud bad events that are relayed by medias. Kindness and love are not big acts and some peoples don't see them anymore because they are not as visibles as bad deeds.

    "I can't do this,Sam"
    "I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories,Mr Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger,they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end,it's only a passing thing,this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something,even if you were too small to understand why. But I think,Mr Frodo,I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back. Only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something"
    "What are we holding onto,Sam?"
    "That there's some good in this world,Mr Frodo. And it's worth fighting for"

    Live every stage of your life with fullfillment, every part of your lives has beauty to it, the youth, the middle point, the elder...
    Enjoy and accept the coming of age, prosper in your youth to one day look back and not regret a wish that was never fulfilled.
    It is a shame of being young and lazy, a shame to not see your body and mind at it's full strength, so train, study and learn, listen to wiser people for many are double your age in these parts of your lives...
    Draw out the good from the evil, how not to act, how not to be and behave
    Reflect on yourself and study all choices that you have for you have something that nowhere else exists, a mind...
