I wish it need not have happened in my time

“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.

“So do I,” said Gandolf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

Jrr Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

    Boy does that speak to me in these times of chaos! Earthquakes, a virus, fear and panic. All we can do is don our coveralls and prepare to deal with what gets thrown at us. Be there for each other, support and love! LYVBF

      Dearest Friend, on top of everything with the virus, you also had to deal with an earthquake. I’m so glad you all are well and donning those coveralls to face tomorrow. I hope your world has stopped quaking and shaking. Hugs dear friend, LYVBFA
