Be that Hobbit, don’t stand by, do, do what little you can, be like that small pebble that starts an avalanche in the mountains. It were the smallest of the small, the Hobbits, that made all the difference in the grand scheme of things. Remember the power of the small, remember that no matter how small you are and feel, the power of the small should never be underestimated. Why is empathy so rare? Why do we have so little compassion? Wasn’t that much like Jesus carrying the cross? Have people changed since the time of Jesus? Have they changed one bit? Why are we so stuck in these same old ways, in this same old evil, in this same old cruelty, and horrors?Ĭan the power of the feminine change that? Is it the lack of balance that is causing this? Where is empathy, where is compassion? Look at the state of the world, do you see compassion anywhere, do you see it when there are so many homeless, and poor, and robbed, and abused…? Do you see it in the way we treat animals? We created an industry of death and killing! I feel tired like Frodo when he couldn’t bare it any longer and collapsed.

We’ve been through this before, why do we have to keep repeating it? I’m so tired of this, I’m so tired of trying and fighting, of trolls, and orcs, and corruption spreading among people who never seem to learn and forget the lessons as soon as they’ve been delivered. Should we pretend it’s not happening and it would be safe here in the Shire, like Pippin wanted to only to be told by Merry there soon will be no Shire if they do not keep trying, keep fighting? So what do you do, how does one deal with that? The servants of the Dark Lord have already entered… I feel the small country I live in is much like the Shire, but even here, the evil can be felt. The Eldar were leaving Middle-Earth more so than the Silvan Elves, as far as I know, at least in the Third Age. Much of her energy had been spent and she needed to recuperate.īut where can I go, where can I hide? The darkness is spreading everywhere. I never really got how there is a thriving Elvish community in Mirkwood, if the elves are supposed to be leaving Middle-Earth.

I feel like Lady Galadriel after she banished Sauron in The Hobbit.

I sometimes feel that life is leaving me, like Arwen, for there is so much malice, cruelty, ignorance, and darkness in this world that it is killing me. I wish I could live in Lothlórien like Lady Galadriel, protected by an army of Elves. I wonder and keep asking God why am I here, why was I sent here, for I find this life so hard to bear.
