Maybe God works in truly mysterious ways, or maybe that’s just the sublime way of things, miracles happening when you least expect it. In Tolkien’s “Lord of the Ring,” it wasn’t the valiant king of men, the swift-footed prince of elves, the last remaining royal descendant of the dwarfs, or the powerful white wizard that put an end to the terrifying, impregnable, and seemingly interminable rule of evil Mordor. It was a most unlikely creature, a short, unimpressive, Hobbit named Frodo. Except that he would be courageous, pure of heart, and would have the power to resist the thoroughly corrupting influence of evil. What can one say?
Thank God for Hobbits. And thank God for “probinsyanong Intsiks.”

I’ll be writing more about the ongoing saga of Jun Lozada. Instead of working on a presentation yesterday, I watched 5 hours of TV. That never happens; I hope that amounts to something.
Thank God for hobbits, and probinsyanong Intsiks!
