Technically, it is March 15, but I stayed up a big chunk of the night working on a project for work, so I am counting this as "on-time". 🙂

Short post tonight, trying to balance all of my responsibilities...

Published on Leave a comment on Lent 2016: March 8, Day 28 – J.R.R. Tolkien passage

Fourteen hour workday doesn't leave much left over  for blogging. 🙂

I'm going to have to resort to  short cut and include one of my favorite passages from a book. I'm sure you'll recognize it...

“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, The Fellowship of the Ring
