H.G.Reviewed Chapter: 1 on 10/10/2015
Oh, that is so beautiful I want to cry. How sweet! Is Blossom real or did you make her up for the story? It's sad either way. Poor Sam, poor Rosie. My ship is sad.

Author Reply: Le hannon, my dear SIAHL. Blossom is just from this story, as far as I know. :)

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Ah, *happy sigh*. It has taken me a while to get around to reading this Antane but it is lovely.

Author Reply: Hantanyel, dear harrowcat! I have missed your reviews and hantanyel too for the Don't Go review! *sends you fresh box of Klennex*

I've been trying to send you this prayer via regular email on and off for months and for some reason I don't understand, it keeps getting rejected so I'm going to send it to you here. It was printed on the front of a church bulletin entitled Prayer for Cathecists so of course I thought of you!

Our God,
You continually call men and women, so that
helped by Your Holy Spirit, they may teach others
to know, love and serve You. We place under Your
loving care these catechists who so generously have
responded to Your call. Enlighten them with Your love,
and strengthen them to give witness to Your
Son by their teaching and deeds.

Grant us that, as a faith community, we may be a
living witness and a source of inspiration and support
for all catechists. Guide our catechists so that they
may respond to the invitation to know Your Son
more fully, so that others, in turn, may recognize
the presence of Christ in their lives. As they catechize
those You have entrusted to them, may they too
grow more fully in communion with You, through
Your Son Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever.
Amen.

On another note, a very dear friend of mine said to me that "I think Frodo is an icon for you". I asked him what he meant since some of my family have feared I have Frodo as a false god and he said "An image through which we experience the Divine Presence" and I was rather blown away by that, by how beautiful, profound and perceptive that was of him say so because it's very true. God brought me to Frodo and Frodo's brought me to Jesus.

Namarie, God bless, Melinyel, Antane :)

There is some homesickness, but more joy, I think. And thoughts of the one child who was lost.

Author Reply: You've got it. Thanks for reading and enjoying!

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)
