Thanks for that Galin I must remind myself to read that again and it does fit in somewhat with Tolkien's Letter 325 which reads thus......As for Frodo or other mortals, they could only dwell in Aman for a limited time-whether brief or long. The Valar had neither the power nor the right to confer 'immortality' upon them. Their sojourn was a 'purgatory', but one of peace and healing and they would eventually pass away (die at their own desire and of free will) to destinations of which the Elves knew nothing.
