Personal view, but since we know Maira can and do…what if Gandalf’s whole reason for all that he did was because he had fallen in love with Nienna? I know the books doesn’t flatly state he did, but consider this- He learned pity through Nienna by seeing what she went through daily because of others, while he also learned compassion through her by seeing that she didn’t harbor any ill intent towards them, but deeply cared about them enough to have hope for them. And most men in love want to protect the one they love and “fix” their problems for them. Gandalf’s personality traits show he’s loyal, wise, compassionate, and acts with absolute intent. So it’s reasonable to assume he kept an eye on the ring for years and involved himself in the fellowship to lessen the burden on Nienna by helping to destroy the most prevalent thing causing years and years of malice and harm on all creation, even if it was only to make her smile a little more and feel all that misery a little less. Rather this love was romantic or platonic on his part, I can’t say, but I do think that love was reflected in how Gandalf viewed Frodo’s journey with the ring and why he was so persistent in teaching others to be more compassionate, and to think before acting. Kind of a fix the now and prevent tomorrow thing. Maybe it’s because Gandalf and Nienna compliment eachother traits so well, or maybe I just want Gandalf to have a little love too, but either way, that’s how I choose to see that.

I always hoped for smeagul's redemption arc but also deeply understood his demise... (I always saw my failures within gollum/smeagul and no matter how much I wanted to hope that I'd be another character I couldn't...) I still don't know how to find redemption within myself

I think Frodo also saw in Gollum what could be his future as a ring bearer which further gave him empathy and perspective. If that were him he would want mercy and pity as well.

“Even the very wise cannot see all ends” is one of my favorite lines in pop culture

😐☕️ it would be nice if everybody learned that life lesson, but everybody sees pity and kindness as a weakness to show endurance during trying times people leave because they’re not happy of the situation and find it easier to start over new than trying to fix what’s there☕️it would be nice if they learned that lesson though it’s not real life, but maybe one day

I've always felt that Tolkien masterfully delivered a message of mercy and hope.

LOTR is quite profound . Tolkien understood human nature better than most

Unfortunately if you think about it, Sméagol got the shaft, he really had nearly zero redeemable qualities. Was just there to a patsy insofar as killing another main character, I o ow that’s oversimplified, but I think there’s merit to that theory

So it’s fitting that pity and mercy overcomes power and domination aka the one ring

I love this explanation. I never really thought about Gandalf's words to Frodo in Moria until like my 15th marathon of the movies. It's all full circle at the end with Gollum having a major part in the destruction of the ring!
