Frodo + what do you have in common? :)

omg a lotr ask??? Thank you so much nonnie!

WELL since I'm doing great mentally the last few months years, what I have in common with Frodo is the despair and general lack of hope in the face of an insurmountable task. I too am faced with a task I consider impossible rn and I too feel pretty hopeless and burdened by various mental and physical health issues which interfere with that task and I too am away from home and way out of my confort zone and continuously feel small and helpless which is sth Frodo feels constantly throughout the story. I think that sense of despair and hopelessness is central to Frodo's character and also to lotr themes and it is not talked about enough imo, and it is precisely that element that makes his heroism and resilience and discipline so meaningful and impactful. And since I am trying to find that determination and discipline myself, Frodo's journey is particularly inspiring to me! I love him to death.
