"Why do u cry?"
He asked himself, he refused to admit, he refused to admit, but the feeling of being spurned once forced him to admit. He changed back to the Guru who only wanted the Lord of the Rings, the Guru who had a fragile and sad side and an evil and hateful side.
He is each of us.
The Lord of the Rings is becoming stronger and stronger in the hearts of people in modern society.
Tolkien is a very wise old man. In the Lord of the Rings, not only does it object to modern industry, but also makes a rare negative and affirmation of human nature.
The human heart is fragile and full of desire and greed, but humans are not half-orcs. Humans have their own glory and pride. Especially with great courage. In every battle that is destined to be lost, human beings have the courage to fight. Maybe because they didn't know the result, maybe because they were stupid, they had a glimmer of hope, but it was this stupid hope that made Sauron finally wiped out and the Lord of the Rings was destroyed.
Just like Aragorn said, "Mankind will perish one day, but not today, mankind will lose hope, but not today." While
fear is infinitely enlarged in the pupils, people are desperately strong.
The elves are holy, unattainable, but also love, hate and greedy. They see too clearly, and estimate the possibility of hope too clearly. Understand the possibility of winning or losing in each battle. Never take risks easily. They are like white-collar workers in this society. They are smart and rational. They think that they are superior, but in reality there is no possibility of rich life.
The Lord of the Rings is the obsession in everyone's heart. They want to own it, but they may not be able to control it after they have it, and they will eventually destroy themselves step by step.
The commendable thing is not to get it unscrupulously, but let go standing on the edge of a cliff. just let it go.
This is a really difficult thing, something that you once owned, has brought happiness or pleasure, how can you give up easily.
Tolkien tells us that sometimes we have to destroy what we once held by ourselves. No matter what kind of baby. A ring is the shackles of the soul. No one wants to become a Guru, but there are so many Guru in the real world that I dare not even say that I am not. If you want to pursue the ultimate freedom, then you must give up what is wrapped up in a cocoon, whether it is a safe refuge, wealth, reputation or hatred.
People who know how to give up are brave people. Frodo didn’t do it. Perhaps this is what Tolkien wanted to say. An old man who lived to such an age and saw a lot. He knew that he could really let go. Very few. At the end of the story, a stern irony was given. Guru's death was a complete relief for him. Frodo can even be said to be not as lucky as Guru, because in the end he also compromised. He understood his fragility and his greed.
But how can this be determined? Human greed is not always bad. Human greed is buried in deep human nature, so it should be the so-called authentic thing.
When I first saw The Lord of the Rings in high school, I only felt that it was just a magical epic with deep emotions. I like the subject matter. Looking at it again, I have a different feeling, and I feel that Tolkien has said a lot, but I understand very little.
This kind of landmark work should be read by the original.
