must be very stressful for yoU!
As you said, it's very instinctive and immediate. In times of stress, we always act instinctively.
Regarding Merry's courage- i think he is one of the most courageous hobbits (well they all are) but i like to point out that he is especially courageous because of the fact he was left behind in many accounts and also have to deal with his kinsmen all injured at the end. I wrote about it in the Merry character thread found elsewhere in the boards.
"By Elbereth and Luthien the fair, you shall have neither the Ring nor me!" ~Frodo
"And then Gandalf arose and bid all men rise, and they rose, and he said: 'Here is a last hail ere the feast endeth. Last but not least. For I name now those who shall not be forgotten and without whose valour nought else that was done would have availed; and I name before you all Frodo of the Shire and Samwise his servant. And the bards and the minstrels should give them new names: Bronwe athan Harthad and Harthad Uluithiad , Endurance beyond Hope and Hope Unquenchable.." ~Gandalf, The End of the Third Age , from The History of Middle Earth series
"He knew now why Beregond spoke his name with love. He was a captain that men would follow, that he would follow, even under the shadow of the black wings."- Siege of Gondor, RotK
