there is a loving God, who directs all things for the best.”

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.
J.R.R. Tolkien
sung by Bilbo in The Hobbit
Note: J.R.R. Tolkien was born January 3, 1892.
Happy birthday, Professor Tolkien!
