I have been reading Tolkien's works for nigh on fifty years, and the more I read his words, the more I love them. I love talking about the deeper meanings of his writings, and how they can inspire people, myself included. I am trying to set up a Smial for my region, and would love to hear from others who are involved in Smials.
