Parallels between "The Lord of the Rings" and "The hobbit"

Part 1

“…You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to”

It is a dangerous business going out your front door by Lily Seika Jones

Let’s talk about Frodo’s strength in this scene please. So, the Ring was not destroyed yet and was calling him. Frodo was tempted to throw himself in Mount doom like Gollum, but he didn’t, he managed to resist an object which including the most powerful creatures of middle earth would have had the difficulty to resist. My strong and brave hobbit❤️

I am literally able to cry after the fifth time I watch LOTR or TH just for the sweetness and courage of hobbits especially of Frodo and Bilbo. I cry more for scenes like Frodo being the only one to offer to take The Ring to Mordor during the Council of Elrond or like Bilbo doing everything to help the company and risks his life to do this than for the actual sad and emotional scenes.

Yesterday I was watching the scene between Balin and Bilbo: “It never ceases to surprise me” “what?” “The courage of Hobbits” my eyes were full of tears.

Please tell me i’m not insane

I was listening to The Milk Carton by Madilyn Mei, and I fully realized, this is Sameise Gamgee’s song.

From the entire message of leaving home and being terrified yet enthralled, to the messages about seeing things only heard of in stories and realizing the true intensity of them, and trying your best to stay there for the one you support, and that knowledge that even if you do return home somehow, it will never be the same. Even the lines of “You can still win, just gotta be faster” falls into the reassurance for Frodo. Hell, even the “Something tells me kid never learned to swim, can I do anything when i’m also drowning?” fits Sam’s entire internal conflict SO FUCKING WELL??? I have no idea if this was intentional or if i’m reading WAYYYY too far into this, but please tell me what you all think!!

(Following are the main lyrics that stood out to me as Sam’s song!!)
