After a long blogging break the Inklings have returned with a newer and better publication. They used to publish a monthly newspaper of stories, jokes, riddles, poetry and fun, but NOW they have begun an online radio/video program. Each month a new broadcast will air over at THE SKOPEO LITERARY SOCIETY inspired by C.S. Lewis. The first broadcast is ready. Please go visit and leave a comment.
Thank you! Yuck is the perfect way to describe it! :-)
It's so strange how this one topic is something so many Christians are divided about! I have a feeling that I'm in the minority of the world on this.... the usual for me! But hey, isn't that how Jesus said it would be for us? :-)
I tried and tried to come up with a better example post, but I couldn't think of one! *sigh* I must have stayed up to late posting that. =D
As for staying up late I think that this verse explains it all!
Genesis 49:9
You are a lion's cub, O Judah; you return from the prey, my son. Like a lion he crouches and lies down, like a lionesswho dares to rouse him?
I like your blog! It is really cool. I was reading through your earlier posts and really liked the one on Robin Hood. I have also fallen in love with the story of this bold hero.
I added you to my friends list!

Fair cousins of the East! Alas, what is this? Oh, I couldn't get your fair mother's blog to open, thus, preventing me to comment on the lovely poem written by your sis. ;)
Tell her good job for me!
Love,
Alatariel, your cousin of the West!
ps. don't do the Thinking Blog Award yet! Wait for my instructions! ;)
"All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us..." GANDALF
The purpose of this blog is to record the ideas that are
most important to us. We are two sisters who choose to go by the names of
Frodo and Legolas. You will find poems and quotes,
narrations and pictures from our favorite sources that
have inspired us to use the time that has been given to
us to the best of our ability. We hope you will enjoy
the journey there and back again....

"The value of the myth is that it
takes all the things we know and
restores to them the rich
significance which has been hidden
by the veil of familiarity . . .
By putting bread, gold, horse, apple
or the very roads into a myth,
we do not retreat from reality:
we rediscover it. As long as the
story lingers in our mind,
the real things are more themselves.
[The Lord of the Rings]
applies the treatment not only
to bread or apple but to good and evil,
to our endless perils, our anguish
and our joys. By dipping them in myth
we see them more clearly. I do not
think [Tolkien] could have done it
in any other way.
- C.S. Lewis

INTO THE WEST by Yulia
The Movie
LORD OF THE RINGS The Return of the King
'When the seas and mountains fall
And we come to end of days
In the dark I hear a call
Calling me there
I will go there
And back again'
