The Hobbit Hole XXIX - Until the stars are all alight...

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Until the stars are all alight
New verse:
|
Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by! |
|
|
Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well! |
|
Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed! |

You scored as Hedonism. Your life is guided by the principles of Hedonism: You believe that pleasure is a great, or the greatest, good; and you try to enjoy life's pleasures as much as you can.
'Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die!'

I'm going to put the computer innards I already have (motherboard, processor, drives, video card) in there and give it a whirl.

You scored as Divine Command. Your life is directed by Divine Command: Your god and religion give you meaning and direction.
?Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations.?
--King James Version of the Bible
?Even as a tree has a single trunk but many branches and leaves, there is one religion--human religion--but any number of faiths.?
--Mahatma Gandhi

Well, that's a little better.
Heh...my boss just sent out an e-mail asking for all of us to attend a meeting next month. I took great pleasure in letting her know I won't be in town that day.
Sometimes things work out ~so~ perfectly. :-)

Well you beat me in Hedonism AND Divine Command (wth did I miss?) but our priority list is pretty close to the same.

Deciding right and wrong by Divine Command is also Hedonism at it's core, is it not?
The flaw in this test is there is no result that is "Dang good liar" :~D
To: Overtaxed
I'm going to put the computer innards I already have (motherboard, processor, drives, video card) in there
But,but,but...aren't those some of things that got burned up? I am such a computer illiterate.
