"And it seemed to him that as in his dream in the house of Bombadil, the grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a far green country under a swift sunrise." (ROTK, Book 6, Chapter IX: The Grey Havens).
I am 22 years young. I am a closet nerd and I indulge myself by working in libraries. My husband loves me because I love to cook and I love him because he... well just because!
I'm a little bit crazy and I have some very eclectic tastes to match. I enjoy everything vintage and antique and I have a passion for photography and for cooking.
I love my God and my husband.
Live. Laugh. Love
Why "Lindethiel's Melody" and "Under a swift sunrise"?
I have always been an avid reader. My parents tell me that I was reading novels by the time i was 8 years old. I remember spending many lunchtimes in the school library and many afternoons at the public library. And so, I wanted my blog to somehow reflect that little part of me.
So I thought long and hard about what to call my blog, and the answer was so obvious. Tolkien. He is my favourite author and his work is the epitomy of fantasy writing. I first fell in love with The Lord of The Rings when I was 10 years old and my dad gave me his First Edition copy. I still have it and it is among some of my most treasured possesions.
That's where my URL and my Blog name comes from. Lindethiel is the Elvish translation of Melody, which is the english meaning of my real name.
"Under a swift sunrise" is part of my favourite quote from the trilogy. As a hopeless romantic, I spend many hours dreaming of sunrises and sunsets.
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king."
