I love what Carannillion said about the hobbits growth representing hope. I love the idea that hope makes all things possible,not easy but possible. All the characters wrestle with keeping hope in the face of their own personal struggles and those that keep their hope usually conquer. Not always, as good men die such as Hama, who never appeared to slip and loose faith. I also agree we all could use a Sam to keep us going,Mark12-30.
