Mrs. Dupuy's Reading Room

At the end of Bilbo Baggins' magnificent adventure he sits to drink tea with Gandalf and discovers that he is happy to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all."After all the courageous acts an brushes with death,Bilbo is happy to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world."He is content to go back to his life in a hobbit hole,and live a peaceful an uneventful life.Being the person I am,I don't believe I could live a life like Bilbo choose.I would be bored an feel like my life had made no difference in this great big world we call our home.It seems like the world around us is moving so fast an that life is going by so quickly,I can't stand the idea of living my life in a very routine and uneventful way!I want to make a difference in people's lives,an it seems impossible to do so the way Bilbo choose to live his life.Bilbo's life was respectable and simple but,it lacks the laughter,happiness,and love I want to have in my life.He was content with his simple life but I would not be.I want to stand out and not just blend in with the crowd!I would not be happy to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all."I want people to remember me an,when I'm gone I want to be able to look back and know that I truly did make a difference.
