Everytime I hear the word 'concerning' I think of 'concerning hobbits'. no matter where or when I hear it, that always comes to my mind.

Sitting at my desk at work, wanting only to take off my badge-and-chain from around my neck and throw it into a lava-filled chasm and walk away a free hobbit...

...but knowing I have a long way to trudge still before I can do it.

Curly, golden-brown beech-leaves in the winter still clinging to the branches.

When Spring unfolds the beechen leaf.

Silver beech-bark.

This, and trees with silvery leaves. Whenever I see one, I tell myself it's a descendant of of Telperion or the White Tree of Gondor.

The taste of fresh bread somehow reminds me of Lembas ,and it somehow connects me to Middle-Earth.

Groves of quaking aspens in the autumn. With their white-grey bark and golden yellow leaves, they remind me of mellyrn!

Reading with a flashlight. The first time I finished reading RotK, my family was driving home from vacation; it was dark out, and I was sitting in the back seat, reading RotK with a flashlight wedged in the crook of my neck.

The song "My Immortal", by Evanescence. It's my Frodo song.

When the mountains near my house are shrouded in clouds and mist.

Being in a large group of people, and not knowing any of them. I feel so much sympathy for Merry, when he's all by himself with the Rohirrim.
