” But I fell in love with the Blessed Sacrament from the beginning – and by the Mercy of God have never fallen out again… “ J.R.R. Tolkein
Regarding receiving the Bread of Heaven:
Tolkien: ” Seven times a week is more nourishing than seven times at intervals. ”
“ Out of darkness of my life, so much frustrated, I put before you the one great thing to love on earth: the Blessed Sacrament…. There you will find romance, glory, honour, fidelity, and the true way of all your loves upon earth, and more than that: Death: by the divine paradox, that which ends life, and demands the complete surrender of all, and yet by the taste [or foretaste] of which alone can what you what you seek in your earthly relationships [love, faithfulness, joy] be maintained, or take on the complexity of reality, of eternal endurance, which every man’s heart desires. “
