I agree with Legolas, for me wanting to be an elf isn't so much about mortality vs. immortality. I have always wanted to be an elf too because I love nature, art and music. When I was a little girl and wasn't allowed to read fantasy, I made up stories about noble beings who loved nature and I pretended that I was one of them. Imagine my excitement when I got older and read Tolkien and discovered that my childhood fantasies were elves! Sigh, but now I'm homesick for Lothlorien or Imladris...

Me too, I want to see Rivendell...
And I liked nature since I was a child. Really. I always thought of myself as an elf, even before I read Tolkien. When I read LotR, I understood my true destiny: I must become an elf!

Legolas, when you figure out how, let me know.

one doesn't have to be an elf to like arts and nature
unlike vanimdil i believe it is immortality, immunity to disease and sickness, keener senses having wisdom and power that goes beyond mortal keen
