There is a song titled "Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing." Perhaps the song should have been titled "Love Is a Many-Splintered Thing." You know, a splinter, a piece of wood that gets under your skin. Time must go by until it festers, and you can be rid of that painful feeling, and the healing can begin. In the case of love, it is kind of like that splinter.

What would you do if you were sitting quietly in your living room when a mysterious couple appeared from out of nowhere-and then told you they were “ascended masters” who had come to reveal some shocking secrets of existence and teach you the miraculous powers of advanced forgiveness? When two such teachers appeared before Gary Renard in 1992, he chose to listen to them (and ask a lot of impertinent questions). The result is this startling book: an extraordinary record of 17 mind-bending conversations that took place over nearly a decade, reorienting the author’s life.

Part One, The Fellowship of the Ring, introduces us to Frodo Baggins. With his uncle Bilbo having mysteriously disappeared, Frodo finds himself in possession of a simple gold ring that has great and evil power. It is the Ruling Ring, taken long ago from the Dark Lord, Sauron, who now seeks to possess it again. Frodo must do everything he can to prevent this, and with the help of Gandalf the wizard and a band of loyal companions he begins a perilous journey across Middle-earth.

The company of the Ring is torn asunder. Frodo and Sam continue their journey alone down the great River Anduin - alone, that is, save for the mysterious creeping figure that follows wherever they go. This continues the classic tale begun in The Fellowship of the Ring, which reaches its awesome climax in The Return of the King.

We often make bad decisions about education, personal finance, health care, family, and the environment.
