    Poem (Fire)

    Fire


    Fire, what is fire?

    To people of science and reason, fire is plasma; nothing more than heated gasses emitting light when electrons change shells.
    But fire is more.

    Darkness


    What is darkness?

    It is evil, it is bad. No! Not that.

    Darkness is more primal, darkness has no alignment, it does not choose a side.

    Darkness is a refuge, a sanctuary sought by those who wish to not be sought themselves.

    Energy


    All around us there is energy, it surrounds us, permeates us, and radiates from us.

    It is this energy which gives us the strength to wake up and the will to do so.

    It is this energy that gives us the courage to stand for what we think is right, even against those we trust.

    Poem (Rainbow Dash)

    Best

    What does it mean to be the best?
    The fame and glory, performing before thousands, the recognition as a master of your art.
    These all come from being the best.
    But, what does it 'mean' to be the best?
    The destination is easy, it is well defined and clear. But one does not simply become the best on a whim. The journey is what matters.

    Poem (Twilight)

    Inside

    This place is a fortress, a stronghold more impregnable than any made of mortar and stone could ever be.

Best

What does it mean to be the best?
The fame and glory, performing before thousands, the recognition as a master of your art.
These all come from being the best.
But, what does it 'mean' to be the best?
The destination is easy, it is well defined and clear. But one does not simply become the best on a whim. The journey is what matters.
'Best' is not just a title, it is a way of life.
It is an over arching, all consuming goal.
Many could be good or even great, without even a chance of being best.
The best know that they are at the top; but also that what is possible is far beyond them.
Those who are great yet bask in their own greatness, can never be the best.
The best is the one who practices when none can see, who won't stop until they succeed.
The best do not gloat, for they know the vastness of what they still cannot do; they push themselves ever onward towards a goal they know cannot be reached.

What does it mean to be the best?
It means to aim for a goal that you know cannot be attained, yet you strive to get there anyway.
