Change is in the air.

I've been reading Tolkien again. Haven't read it in a while. Guess i'm joining the bandwagon and reading it just cause of the movie. But i read amazed with a new understanding of it all. Tolkien said he never meant for the story to be a complete allegory, but there are so many references to the coming of Jesus and the gospel in it. Quite amazing. He does it all with so much detail too. What can i say? tolkien's a genius. even if he didn't make so many biblical inferences. He captures the reader in such a unique way.
