if hobbits are of the race of men and men can't be permitted to live forever on Valinor but to die and leave the world why at least 2, and later supposedly 3 (Bilbo+Frodo,then Sam) are embarked on the greys ships? they are the last 3 living ring-bearers that somewhat felt the traction of its power and frodo was also touched by the morgul blade curse so i can understand that they went to be healed but if the blessing (for Tolkien) of their kin is death aren't they theoretically deprived of their aforementioned blessing?
