Frodo and I and a few of our friends have started a society based upon The Lord Of The Rings . We call ourselves "The Fellowship." We all wear rings that we have put onachain and keep them under our shirts so that no one sees them. We wanted to do this partly for fun and partly as a symbol of the quest that we are all on. We wanted to symbolize that we are all just like Frodo on a quest to the end. A less exciting word for that quest is LIFE. It is more interesting to call it a perilous journey and make-believe that we are characters from the The Lord Of The Rings but I think that it is also interesting to know that there is a good deal of truth to our "game."Maybe you would like to join the quest with us and wear a ring.Just remember:
"All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us..." GANDALF
The purpose of this blog is to record the ideas that are
most important to us. We are two sisters who choose to go by the names of
Frodo and Legolas. You will find poems and quotes,
narrations and pictures from our favorite sources that
have inspired us to use the time that has been given to
us to the best of our ability. We hope you will enjoy
the journey there and back again....

"The value of the myth is that it
takes all the things we know and
restores to them the rich
significance which has been hidden
by the veil of familiarity . . .
By putting bread, gold, horse, apple
or the very roads into a myth,
we do not retreat from reality:
we rediscover it. As long as the
story lingers in our mind,
the real things are more themselves.
[The Lord of the Rings]
applies the treatment not only
to bread or apple but to good and evil,
to our endless perils, our anguish
and our joys. By dipping them in myth
we see them more clearly. I do not
think [Tolkien] could have done it
in any other way.

And we come to end of days
In the dark I hear a call
Calling me there
I will go there
And back again'

And what's up with your blog? Looks bright and happy - like you... but i think darker colours go better with Hobbits (and an Elf). ;)
I love you girls!
TTYS! I need sleep!
