Lindil, I love this question; but I should answer it twice a year, at least, as my answer keeps changing and changing.

This week [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I would have to say.... The Grey Havens. Perhaps because Sept. 29 is two days away, and I have already spent time at the each thinking about it. (Too bad I can't go back to the beach Sunday, I'll be away.) Why does it inspire me so? Because of the threshold, the Traveller's choice to move on and seek the Light and the Holy and the Profound; and yet with the knowledge that not everybody chooses that, and of those that do, some will not choose it the same day the Traveller does, and will come later. The partings can be terrible.

But the Traveller must go.
