The road goes ever on and on...

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.


              John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, perhaps the smartest man that ever lived, penned these words a long time ago. But the truth that lies in the verse speaks more to my soul now than it ever did before. There is a new road that lies before my wife and I. We are pursuing the road to Catholicism with eager feet.
