Every now and again we read or hear just the exact words that we needed to inspire us, provide solace, or to help us understand what was in our heart that we couldn’t quite name. These words come as a very special gift, easily kept and easily shared.

From Lord of the Rings/Gandalf: “All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
