Cheer up Treepers, I was re-re-reading LOTR and came across one quote that encapsulates how I feel and one fact that does the same.

“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

Fact: It took Frodo six months to get to Mount Doom and the path there was paved with: destroyed lands, broken friendships, treachery, defeats and many dead. In the end, salvation came from a surprising source and on many occasions the members of the Fellowship were nearly enveloped by despair and doubt.

Have faith, we are winning, they know it and they know we know.

P.s. Are strikes not seen as a valid weapon against the Biden maladministration? He’s taking 14 cabinet members on the eco junket in Glasgow next week, perfect time for a bit of down tools/ work to rule one might think.
