Starswirl's Journal

by AlesFlamas

A Mysterious Entry (Entry #. . . Who Cares?)

It's been so long. . . so long since I've been home. Why did I leave? Where did I go? Did I even have a home? Was this all just a dream? Some sick joke? I don't know anymore. And even more frightening than that. . . I don't know if I care any more. Or, was it that I had nothing to care about? Again, I just don't know. The boy and I have begun to detest each other, if only because we have grown so tired of each others company. Spending eons with somepony. . . eons. What is time? What is it really. . .

What a joke I am. So much that I've discovered and still I know nothing. Was it all worth it then? Did I live a life worth living? Do I deserve to live, even now? I have my doubts. But. . . I suppose I've stuck it out this far. No reason to call it quits yet. Who knows. Perhaps I'll find something that can justify my existence.

I doubt it though.

Hmm...
Is this the spirit of Starswirl manipulating the Journal? Or just musings of a madman who happened to find the journal?

Should've really brought some pot along for that trip, Swirly.

5368911 As time goes on and the stallion who is Starswirl the Bearded learns more about the world in which he lives, perhaps he discovers things he would of been much better off not knowing. Maybe these discoveries seem wonderful at first, but simply lead to a life filled with regrets and constant questioning of self-worth. Perhaps. . . or perhaps theses writings are just the musings of a madman, as you say. Who can say for sure?
