amyrlis - I too was touched by your description of what it means to be a fan of Tolkien. The evening at dusk is indeed my favorite time of day. As for the rest... I cannot hope to be so eloquent, but I feel just exactly that way. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Might I add also that I agree with everyone else who said that if there was a way to get to Middle Earth right now, I would have not a moment's indecision about leaving all behind and going there forever, just as I am, although I'd much rather find myself transformed into an elf [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]. Truthfully, now: would any of us rather stay here, in this pain-infested world, if there were the choice instead of going to reside amid the matchless beauty and harmony of Middle Earth? I think not.
