"You don't mind where you are because you know where you've been..." - Carbon Leaf

What is this? MTV teaches philosophy? Or did you read this on a cocktail napkin after self-medicating yourselves during that span of hours euphemistically called Happy? It would make a certain maudlin sense.

Do you know, you should try expressing this sentiment to those about to meet the hangman's noose, or to those interred in POW camps. I'm sure that they will find great comfort in these words. When I consider it, it is an amusing idea. I'll have to remember to offer this consolation to my prey when next I hunt.

Are all these prompts getting repetitive, or is it just me that has no imagination? It seems to me that no matter what the prompt is my answer remains the same - some angst about how terrible things were in Beleriand, at the Nirnaeth or on Thangorodrim, followed by some comment about how grateful I am that things are different now.

I think I would like to rephrase this quote. I don't mind where I've been, because I know where I am.  Had things not gone the way they did, I would have remained in Valinor, I would not even be here now. And without the experiences that shaped me through the First Age, I would be a person quite different from the way I am now.
