The One Ring, that is. I find strength in wearing the ring.
It is a constant reminder that even when things are hard, you should never give up. Even if in the moment you find yourself thinking that things are hopeless, don't give up. I think Sam said it best here...
That is my favorite speech of all time. R is my Sam. He has been my ally since I was 19 and has been the person in this scene for me on many, many occasions during this hard time of my life. In fact, last year when I watched this scene it was one of the factors that encouraged me to move back here, thinking about how I could never let go of him. Turning away someone like Sam would be such a wrong thing to do. This scene always makes me cry because it reminds me of him and how sweet he always is to me. When I see this scene I really think about him and how great of a friend he has been to me. He is the one at my side encouraging me to go on. :)
I find myself missing DC a lot. I miss the life I had last year. We did a lot of really fun things. Maybe I will document those in this journal, if they aren't too painful (by bringing up memories about who I was with). It is hard to let go of good things. That's the truth. Sometimes you have to let go. I know this sounds cryptic, but hopefully I'll have more time to write about that later. I just hope that I can make it through this project in one piece and move forward.
