<font color="blue"> "I can't do this, Sam."

"I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo, the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. 'Cause sometimes you didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How can the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end it's only a passing thing. A shadow even darkness must pass. A new day will come and when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you, that meant something even if you were to small to understand why. But I think Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folks in those stories had lots of chances in turning back only they didn't. They kept going because they were holding onto to something."

"What are we holding onto, Sam?"

"That there's some good left in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for." </font>

I started this with a short I love it kind of post. But then I went back and reread really read what you posted.

It is so very true. We should not have to be here but we are. It is very difficult to imagine some times that it will ever be better. But it will pass.

I do love it. That is a GREAT post. Thank you so much.

Take care.

Hi Neri, we haven't spoke in a while. But as one movie buff to another and one Lord of the Rings lover to another...I remember this scene very clearly as I've watched all the movies about 569421345 times. Everytime I see it I'm struck by the despair and wanting to give up and walk away, but then someone comes along and reminds you of what's really important...all the good in the world.
Who would've thought a little hobbit such as Sam could be so profound? His loyalty to Frode is something I aspire to. Thanks Neri. TgrsPurr, xo.
