Trust

Trust.. What was with it? Where did it come from? Aragorn asked himself as the Fellowship followed Gandalf through the musty darkness of the halls of Moria.

They were all following Gandalf without question and it was not so much a matter of the wizard's superior knowledge but rather a matter of trust in him that had them trudging along in the echoing shadows of the deserted halls.

The same trust had brought the four hobbits to follow him out of the Prancing Pony and on the way to Rivendell. That trust had not come easy, but still the little ones had chosen to trust him and place their lives in his hands.

So why could he find no trust in himself for the warrior of Gondor? Why did he always feel the need to follow him with his eyes and move close every time he stepped near Frodo?

Boromir.. who one day would be his Steward.. a man he should trust implicitly..
