Chapter 3- chapter 1

This is Chapter 1 of Chapter 3, its only 1167am, 5 days before the New Year. In Gondor, the New Year will always now begin upon the twenty-fifth of March when Sauron fell, and when Frodo was brought out of the fire to the King.

So today is Saturday, the 2nd last day before the raging war continues in Middle-Earth...Enjoy and be at peace while you can, because all these will come to and end. And by dawn of monday, we shall ride to war... and to ruin, to wrath, and a red nightfall.

So, i spent my morning rereading The Lord of the Rings because i feel that some people think that i rely on the movie much more than i rely on the book..Which is more or less true, i find much pain and difficulty to go through the book again and again. I have to say, after re-reading a few chapters of the book that it is nothing like the movie. The words used are all of such elegance and beauty. If a punk read the book, he would make fun of it entirely because the book describes many moments together as a fellowship, filled with merry, and all so gay. Honestly, i love the word gay, because it describes happiness on the whole. But it isn't wise to use the word gay all the time as people might percieve wrongly. In the book, there are moments where love can be felt, that of warmth and affection in the fellowship... and there're moments when Sam and Frodo hold hands and i find this very sad..especially when they destroyed the ring. They've forged such a strong bond together and in the end, Frodo had to go the the Grey Havens.. That particular scene in the movie makes me wanna cry like a baby....his last words:






" My dear Sam, you cannot always be torn in two. You will have to be one and whole for many years. You have so much to enjoy and to be, and to do. Your part in this story will go on. "






Who here shares the love of Lotr with me? That similar love that can be found throughout the book...As they journey about Middle-Earth as a fellowship, forging strong bonds, i've become part of the Fellowship too and i have also forged strong bonds with them, that is why i find it hard to give it up...
