Does anyone find when you read a Tolkien book you actually enter Middle-earth and forget about all your problems, you actually forget that you exist. I was speaking to a friend and she agreed. Then she mentioned that she likes to go to a forest that look’s like Middle-earth (the way she see’s it in her head). I went home and thought about it. Behind my backyard is this forest. When I walk in it, I am waiting for a hobbit to hop from behind a tree because it looks like Middle-earth. I also noticed that I often go to that forest when I am troubled and blue. I could spend hours there just sitting and thinking or even taking the Lord of the Rings and reading it there. I am sure everyone has a place like that, where is YOUR Middle-earth?
