Our whole world now is one where we are told to mask up, get in line, say only what we are told to say in the way we are allowed to say it. They blare at us with statistics and a bullhorn, and we get in line and walk in step.
And truly all that has mass and majesty is in the hands of others, for now.
But like the Hobbits, though we are small....we will crawl back. It may take a while. But we will get our life and dignity, mass and majesty back, though it will be very costly.
It’s going to be costly indeed. But good always wins in the end.
