A Commendation of Their Qualities

[Reyna Evergreen]

Arwen has inner strength. Come on, if your one love went out to the great risk of dying, and you supported it, it would take more than a bit of hope.

Pippin and Merry had sheer ignorance. Bad thing? In this case, certainly not! If they had known what they were getting into, they probably wouldn't have done it. Not knowing their peril, they did many great things, like Merry taking on the Witch King, and Pippin joining the Rohan (or was it Gondor?) guard.

Frodo had resilience. No explaination needed.

Sam loyalty. You know that saying "If your friend would jump off a cliff, would u do it too?" If it were to follow Frodo, he'd go first to offer something soft for Frodo to land on.

Boromir...I don't know how to say this, but he had something close to self-acceptance. I agree with TolkienGurl; he knew he was wrong and admitted it. That takes character, especially considering his line and pride.

Tee-hee...that was fun, and I guess that if we all showed a bit more of the qualities portraied in these characters, we wouldn't have to jump off cliffs...
