"But it is the way of my people to use light words at such times and say less than they mean. We fear to say too much. It robs us of the right words when a jest is out of place."
As with hobbits, there are here some members of our community that do not do so well with difficult situations. Had Crystal Heart really died, people would have continually come forth, struggling with emotions and eloquency to offer the appropriate farewells and condolences. Since she is [thankfully] alive and well, there is no longer any need to struggle, and a few of us can say "Hey, thank God she's alive, but what is there to do now but look back and laugh?" What point can anyone here find in dwelling on the past? We can see this incidence as a cruel joke to constantly remember, or we can let it pass.
