Thank you!
That's a good quote, especially right now!

[indy1776]

That's why I picked it.

I'm sure I've said it before, but it aways bears repeating. This was like a mantra for me in high school that I repeated to myself in whatever situation seemed to call for it. (Some were ridiculously trivial like getting off the train at the wrong station and having to find my way back, I recall. Others were less trivial, like trying to figure out what was going to happen in the aftermath of 9/11. Has it been so long!)

Tolkien likes having people find each other by means of a song, eh?

[indy1776]

It's a great mantra!

Yeah, it seems so, doesn't it?
