I was talking with a friend about our shared love of Tolkien, which reminded me of this quote, which reminded me of a picture Cmdr Scott Kelly took from the ISS- (I believe of Spain?) as twilight was coming on, all the blues and blacks and grays and clouds swirled together, and the delicate glow of lights from the cities, the earth looking so fragil-y beautiful… And there you have it. How an entry in the handbook comes about. (28/365) 01.29.17

The first two words of the quote are hard to read due to the gold paint: \ »The world is indeed full of peril and in it there are many dark places. But still there is much that is fair. And though in all lands there is now love mingled with grief, it still grows, perhaps the greater.\ »- JRR Tolkien
