By rights we shouldn’t even be here.
But we are.
It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo.
The ones that really mattered.
Full of darkness
and danger they were.
And sometimes
you didn’t want to know the end.
Because how could the end be happy.
How could the world
go back to the way it was
when so much bad had happened.
But in the end,
it’s only a passing thing, this shadow.
Even darkness must pass.
A new day will come.
And when the sun shines
it will shine out the clearer.
Those were the stories
that stayed with you.
That meant something.
Even if you were too small
to understand why.
But I think, Mr. Frodo,
I do understand.
I know now.

Folk in those stories
had lots of chances
of turning back
only they didn’t.
Because they were
holding on to something.
FRODO: What are we holding on to, Sam?
SAM: That there’s some good
in this world, Mr. Frodo.
And it’s worth fighting for.

Brokenness

KINTSUGI is the Japanese art of mending broken pottery with gold. It renders the mended pottery worth more than it was worth before it broke. Be gold for the broken ones.

Supermoon & Leonid Meteor Shower
CNN: November’s full moon, otherwise known as the beaver moon, will shine bright in the sky on Friday as the last supermoon of the year.
For sky-gazers observing the golden orb this weekend, the Leonid meteor shower could make for a dazzling bonus feature as it reaches its peak on Saturday night into early Sunday, according to the American Meteor Society.
The beaver moon — named as a nod to that animal’s hibernation and thicker coats this time of year — will reach the crest of its full phase at 4:29 p.m. ET Friday, according to The Old Farmer’s Almanac. But the moon will appear full to the naked eye about a day before and after its peak, said Noah Petro, chief of NASA’s Planetary Geology, Geophysics and Geochemistry Laboratory.
