Mithadan is basically right. The 'afterlife' of the races of Arda, is cloudy at best. Men and Dwarves only really go on Myth, Legend an beliefs. We really don't know. We can only assume that what they believe is correct. Elves we know for a fact go to Mandos - The Halls of Waiting. And take comfort there to ease any suffering. Untill the time is come when and if they want to leave(Miriel springs to ming here). Some are there for ever i.e Feanor. And some stay for long periods of time i.e Saeros. With 'the rebuilding of Arda' none can say for certain. IMO.
