Unreported acts of kindness from New Zealand Sunset near Twizel, New Zealand on the day of our story. During one such private meeting, a shared photo led to a side conversation that led to a revelation about an act of kindness that hit me, and still hits me, in my core. Somebody I knew, not in New Zealand, had heroically withstood some of life’s trials and others, in New Zealand, had selflessly performed a service for them.

It is time to say goodbye to 2011 and hello to 2012 – a year in which we will not only see the first installment of The Hobbit, but also a year of some huge announcements from us here at TheOneRing.net! Below you will find links to the top 20 TheOneRing.net stories of 2011 based on popularity, visits and shares. We can’t say we are surprised to find that nearly all of the stories relate directly to Peter Jackson’s upcoming ‘The Hobbit‘ films, but a few LOTR specific stories manage to sneak in. Our resolution to you this year: Provide unique, relevant and exciting content inspired by the words and world of JRR Tolkien. Wishing you and years a very Happy New Year! Reminisce and enjoy!
