About

The palantíri were made by the elves of Valinor in the Uttermost West, in the universe created by J.R.R. Tolkien (author of the Lord of the Rings). This word is sometimes translated as Seeing Stone but actually meaning “Farsighted” or “One that Sees from Afar.”

I am not saying that I am farsighted, or have wisdom, or that wisdom will even reside in this Blog. It is simply my attempt to look deeper into myself and to journal my thoughts. I want to try to see farther into the world I live in -  into politics, science, God, and make connections that I may not necessarily make.

The posts have been and probably will remain random.
