But if it's only(or for the most part) it's unspoilt nature that makes us want to live there, then I suppose its possible to re-create ME here and now? At least on some area and to some considerable degree. That's like something Sauron offered to the elves: not to yearn for the Aman, but to make paradise in ME, to make ME as good as Aman. Of course this led to making of the Rings of Power and well-known consequences, but that's because Sauron wanted them to happen.

That is true but more than anything it is all of it. The races, the unspoilt natural surroundings and the much simpler way of life. Everyone knows their place in the order of the world and the simple choice to be good or bad. There is no grey area.

Sometimes I think we have made life far too complicated

The pictire you portraying reminds me of 16-17th centuries a little(at least that's how I imagine them). The problems are the progress and development that cause complexity and spoiling of nature. Of course there can be compromise between development and nature, but it would be a 'grey area' then.

Maybe sometime in the future it would be possible to organise realm akin to ME, but that seems so vague :'(

I would like to live in the shire. I like that cute holes, they look very confortable. The landscape is great, the people are friendly, and you don't have to worry about the rest of the world.... that's perfect for me!  :P

Anyway, you need people of intelligens for this sort of mission... quest... thing!

LOTRUK is the best


« #35 : April 10, 2007, 08:10:55 PM »

If I have only one choice , I will choose Hobbiton as many people do . However, given more choices , I'd like to live in Shire ,with the bed and the garden of Rivendell ,mornings of  Lothlorien , evening of Mirkwood . Every morning when I wake up , I feel the soft of the bed and the warm of sunshine . In the chair of  Hobbiton , I finished  my breakfast . Then I go to the forest and take a deep breath , collecting some flower for my room. and start my work  of the day . Afternoon , I am able to sleep for a while under a tree in my garden . When the night falls , friends of mine was all around a bright fire ,telling stories , watching stars : and  I am listening carefully .
     A little greedy ?^_^   All in all , the world of the good peoples are beautiful and holy . The true beauty of these places lie in their people and their beautiful mind .  I love all these places !

If I could live anywhere, I would live in either Ithilien, or Lake Town and the Iron hills, in the halls of Thorin Oakenshield.

wow, this brings back memories...isn't this the topic that went completely wild last time?
Oh, and either the Shire, for a nice peaceful life, or (if something could be done about Arwen) anywhere near Aragron :)

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.
The road goes ever on and on, down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the road has gone, and I must follow, if I can.

I think I would have to choose Bree.  After all, its where all roads cross, isn't it?  From there, who could guess where my feet would take me?  The Shire on one side, Rivendell on the other, to the south Moria, Gondor and Rohan and if I wished to go North then who knows what adventure I might find?

Mind you, I wouldn't mind living at Brandy Hall either!

« #43 : September 19, 2007, 01:39:10 AM »

I'd choose Rivendell or Lothlorien, because i'd be an elf through and through .. i'm always told i look like an elf which I used to find flattering until nearly ever new person i met kept saying it :( .. Rivendell because i love the way everything fits around the trees, and in this current global situation we're in living in a natural place like that seems right, plus i love the architecture. I also really love Lothlorien but having Galadriel around all the time being all mystical and freaky might get tiresome! I wouldn't mind living in any of the Elven communities really!

'I stand in Minas Anor, the Tower of the Sun,' she said; 'and behold! the Shadow has departed! I will be a shieldmaiden no longer, nor vie with the great Riders, nor take joy only in the songs of slaying. I will be a healer, and love all things that grow and are not barren. No longer do I desire to be a queen.' ~ Eowyn "Return of the King"

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?


« #44 : September 19, 2007, 02:37:30 AM »

You know, I used to like the idea of Rivendell, but ever since I saw all those dead leaves drifting around the place in the films, it put me right off.  I guess that would rule out Lothlorien, Mirkwood and Fangorn too.  :t: :t: :t:
