t l o t r






I watched this movie yesterday, and I have never felt more alive. I felt as though I understood what every single character was going through, It was odd, like a dream....I felt pity for Gollum, and I had sympathy for Boromir. My eyes saw the pain in Aragorn's eyes. How by becoming the King of Gondor, he is also accepting the weakness of Isildur. I had empathy for how much Arwen truly does love Aragorn, and how very hard it was for him to leave her. It's as if I could feel the wind in the trees and smell the sweet water of the Ents. I had seen Eowyn's soul through her stature, so vividly alive, so magically wondrous! I admired Frodo's close friendship with the other Hobbits, but had sadness in my heart for the journey that becomes his burden and his alone. I actually understood what they were saying, but in a way I never had before. I hope that there is something inside me that is changing, I hope my person is growing into a fairer Knight each and every day, I one day want to conquer my fears like Boromir, and always have Hope like Aragorn. Believe in myself like Eowyn, and become my destiny, my legacy, my soul.






“End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it.” 

J.R.R. Tolkien
