I feel like I just have read my own thoughts about LOTR influence on people. I agree with everyone here. As for me, I have some moments when remembering a quote from the book or a scene hepls to despatch the problem or bad feeling. once, when I was ill and felt very broken (hmm), I was refreshing my memory about the Shire's landscapes and hospitable hobbits. and I got better feelings then.
I have learned from the book one thing - never give up! Always when I have a trouble doing smth, I compare my problem with the Frodo's and Sam's problem, for ex., when they went to Mordor... After that I realize how insignificant my problem is.
LOTR has a great positive energy, and it comes to everyone who dares to open and read the book.
