Who Am I? · 7:38pm Jul 23rd, 2018
Hold your horses (snuggle them too), I'm not telling you I am IRL. I'm just giving a few explanations.
In real life I am surrounded by those who hate MLP and see many dangers in it, which I myself am aware of. It is the primary reason I make sure people understand that their are certain lines I will not cross. I have specific standards. I am actually a very outward person. I'm not a introvert really. I prefer to be with people (now). Many people know my real face, but none of them know that the name TRIBOT 3000 belongs to it.
You may be upset, angry even, that I don't tell anyone the truth. Or maybe you are understanding because you're going through the same thing. Either way, if you ever find out who I am...don't tell anyone. Keep it to yourself. If I tell you myself, it means I trust you enough to keep the secret. I will also deny it if you do find out who I am and I haven't given you permission to tell anyone. No matter how many facts you present, I deny it to the bitter end or until I am ready.
I know this post is a bit depressing, but it's the truth, so I don't feel bad.
It's understandable and more often than not the truth is depressing. for me IRL everyone who knows me thinks I am the good son and nice brother. there is only one person that knows the other me and they I trust more than my own blood. You should never have to hide who you are from someone but there are times that we as people do because we love and respect those around us. It is love and respect that we have the courage to hide away what some others look down upon and it is with courage that we keep that part of ourselves alive.
We are all a puzzle and everyone else gives us one of our missing pieces as we give them theirs. Many people believe in fate and they hold the opinion that when you go against fate you are punished, but there is some truth to that statement. Someone does get punished but not you, it is the people watching you because they never get to see what you see. There is a saying, "When you look at the world through a filter, you miss what it doesn't want you to see and forces you to focus on what it does want you to see."
What I mean to say TRIBOT 3000 is that it is easy to lose yourself to become something that others want you to be and another thing to hide away part of yourself so you dont lose it. You are courageous because you refuse to give up a part of yourself and respectful because you are willing to contain it when those around you are not welcoming of it. "Heros don't do things the easy way" was a statement for a story I read once and from how you describe your life at the moment makes me sure you are being what that author described as a hero. I hope the world treats you better and you find comfort in it. Stay safe and hope you feel better.
You seem the like riddles so let's see if this one will make you feel better. The answer should be easy to figure out.
I am what you lovingly hide,
Hidden away deep inside.
Misunderstood and darkened fears,
Worry not for I am here dear.
We are always together and never alone,
As long as you have me we are always at home.
Some may try but I have no measure,
To most, I am a precious treasure.
Many blame her for opening the box,
but you shouldn't she was curious like a fox.
My brothers ran spreading the dark,
at last, she saw me a glowing spark.
What am I?

Thank you for your words of comfort Crescent. I appreciate you telling me this. I've never really thought of myself as a hero, but you make a good point. I'll do my best to live up to the role, as long as you do the same.
As for the riddle. I honestly think the answer is either 'my soul' or 'myself' but the box part honestly has me confused. I guess I'm better at making riddles then I am at answering them.

Broken down view:
I am what you lovingly hide,
Hidden away deep inside.
Feelings of protection cause you to keep it close to you.
Misunderstood and darkened fears,
Worry not for I am here dear.
It is the force that keeps the darkness at bay in your mind and heart.
We are always together and never alone,
As long as you have me we are always at home.
It is a source of feelings that provides comfort.
Some may try but I have no measure,
To most, I am a precious treasure.
Many will try to get you to get rid of it, most keep hold of it.
Many blame her for opening the box,
but you shouldn't she was curious like a fox.
Think about it a woman with a box.
My brothers ran spreading the dark,
at last, she saw me a glowing spark.
Brothers of darkness and one of light combine with the box should reveal the answer.
What am I?
Hope.
Hope is a feeling that provides comfort in times where you feel trapped in despair and most try to have you surrender it but you should always keep it close and safe. The woman and the box are referencing the tale of Pandora's Box. Sorry if it was confusing.
I hope you are feeling better and are looking for a better future. when you start feeling lost in darkness remember there is always someone there to bring you back into the light.
