Suffering is one of life's greatest obstacles to seeing the Goodness of God. Does God see what we suffer? The following words are not my own, but a reflection on this mystery by the late Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen. I share them with the hope that they help you as much as they have helped me. If any of you are in need of prayers for any reason, just let me know in the comments, or feel free to message me, peace.

HELLO EVERY PONY! oh... there's the caps lock... oh well, working on my own story on my sister's site, hope you don't mind. You'll get a better glimpse at what happened to me and how my little abomination, Screwball came into my life. Have fun reading... I just went to the emoticons and noticed that, as usual, Celestia gets something that no other pony in our family does. How fair is that? Honestly! Not fair! Couldn't have a single Discord emoticon? And what about Luna? Hasn't she been ignored

'Tis a sad day, my friends. Yesterday evening I lost my computer due to a bad trip and my microphone cord. Because of this, I am degraded to having to use my phone as my only way of writing much of anything unless I go to my local library, but... People are nosy as hell. So until I get a new one because I refuse to give those bastards at Apple $1K for a screen I will be using my phone for updates, writing and what have you. Currently working on a new Siren's Keeper and hopefully I'll get

So, in less than a day's time, the next US president will be sworn in. Many users of this site, of this fandom, will undoubtedly be affected by what this term will bring, for them and the world at large. But it is important to be confident, optimistic, to look for good wherever you can find it. To make the most of a bad situation or, if need be, to stand up and get a handle on things when said things are out of control. There's the possibility that nothing too negative or catastrophic will

Are you a caregiver, help take care of someone, have family or friends that require care, or even just want to support those who take on that responsibility? Then join my new group Hope, Love, and Care..

So nearly 3 weeks in my new job and it's difficult and sometimes hard, but also exactly the challenge I was looking for. I'm interested where this is going.

As for writing and editing: I haven't done anything really and I'm sorry for it. Chapter 9 of the main story is still in work and I'm hoping I can finish it soon.

Everything will be all right in the end... if it's not all right then it's not yet the end.

I found my fic in the Popular Stories side bar.

It has 19 views, and you can't find it on any of the pages when sorting all stories by Heat, aka clicking More Popular Stories.
Either my view count is broken or the Popular Stories side bar uses a very different and broken algorithm for finding what's popular than the normal sorting by Heat.

I'm willing to bet it's the latter.

One Day:
Is this how I’m to be remembered?
A sad mistake that goes beyond what I intend?
Is this how I should suffer?
A tainted stain upon what once was pure?

Its best that I should go,
My actions will define me until the wrongs have been made right,
But myself I will not show,
A burden on my shoulders when darkness came to light,

But one day I’ll return,
To see a greener pasture that’s all I hope to find,
One day I will return,

IN WHICH I AM SLIGHTLY STUCK
You ever have that feeling where you're halfway through a story when you realize it's crap and you have no choice but to scrap the whole thing and start over with a better idea? Well, that's where I'm at right now on the Mayor Mare story I have to finish by Saturday. Follow me past the jump for more tidbits.

I'm nearly finished with the last chapter of How Rarity fell in love with a Flying Purple Hippo. I've got like one more scene left to write, and I'll probably be able to finish it off tomorrow. However, I likely still won't be writing any more fanfic for a while, this time for a completely different reason. See, I still can't seem to find a job, despite coming tantalizingly close a few times. I may end up going to graduate school instead if nothing sticks in another few months.

So just a heads up: If anyone checks the weather from time to time, then y'all might know that my area is under a Winter Storm Warning from late Tonight (aka Thursday) until early Saturday Morning.

And hopefully if we don't lose power.... I will be back on Sunday to get Chapter 24 of Legends of Equestria: The Long Road Back published to the story by that point, meaning it will be two chapters in the same week for of the final full week of January 2022.

Fingers crossed!

WARNING: This part is far less comedic than the first, and while the rest will largely be comedic, this one is more like the original IYGALL parts. I tried to find the "make it worse" meme with sad OC backstories, but couldn't, so imagine it's here to warn you.

Anyway, new Paging Doctor Sparkle's coming out soon, too. That will, for sure, have far less emotional pain involved.

I saw someone posted a suicide note on Fimfiction awhile ago, and saw the resolution. Their father was contacted and police was dispatched to his house. I wanted to take a moment and give my two cents. I've dealt with a lot of suicidal ideation before too. Therapy helps a lot, if you can get it and are receptive to the process.

So, I’m putting part I on hiatus, due to the incredible lack of support I have and the fact that I really messed up while writing it.
I just wanted to get it done with, rather than having fun with writing - as you can imagine, it’s not exactly worth reading.
Also, all the hype is of Gen5, my story isn’t exactly related to it, so it wouldn’t do too well.
