Better put by your troubles, better put by your fright,
'Cause you want to move forward and you know it's the wrong time to look back
Yes, it may be a long time till you see the light,
But you'll see the light.
-Barry Keating, Starmites, Afraid of the Dark

It applies to both the true / physical heart and to our metaphorical heart.

Deep breaths. It will be alright.

You must be out of it for me to be correcting your grammar.

(Is that heresy by RipChurch standards?)

Mostly because I see him as being wise the way I see Elrond being wise, rather than the money-grabbing politician sort of "wisdom" that the Master has.
(On a related note: It's time for my annual re-reading of the stories of Middle-earth! Yay!)

But a lack of kindness, or a blind acceptance of youth and beauty and charm as the highest currency we have is mindless.
