May Peace Come Upon All Beings
Pray for Orlando and pray that all hearts turn from hate to love.
Or failing that, that the Islamic State is annihilated from the face of the earth.

My last blog post ruffled some feathers so let me clarify. I am not Extreme Pro-Life. I'm Moderate Pro-Life. I think abortion should be legal in the case of rape or if the woman's life is in danger. In general, I only support the taking of life in the case of self-defense. Another issue I've wrestled with is vegetarianism. Is it moral to take life in order to eat? Should I? To fully embrace my belief in the sacredness of life should I give up eating meat? I've restricted myself to fish, dairy,
I am completely opposed to the application of the death penalty as, apparently, were my Celtic ancestors. According to "The Irish Statute Book" there was no death penalty in the Brehon Law of Ancient Ireland. Outlawry or the payment of compensation were the ordinary punishments as it was among the culturally related Norse. Why is this so? Is it not human nature to seek retribution? No. No it is not. It is our animal nature that seeks retribution. We are Children of the Gods, not animals.
Well, the Care and Raising of Pegasii is officially complete. I fully intend to write a sequel to it, but for now it feels finished in the sense that I don't know where to go with it. The main conflict is over, Scootaloo has found a new home with Dash and is ready to move on to a new level of training now that she can fly. (Even though she's still having trouble with it, and the sequel will reveal that LOL, you'll just have to read it)
Ideas for the sequel-
Love conquers all. It is a force of nature. It was the First God, and caused all things to be. Love binds families, tribes, nations, entire worlds and galaxies. It endures. It was at the beginning. It will be at the end and start the great cycle once more, once more turn the Great Wheel. In the end, it will conquer death itself.
I'm working on the last chapter. Should be up this week. Scratch that, it may be the last chapter of the first arc.
Things are winding down with this semester. This morning I was able to actually work on my personal writing! I have a last chapter planned for The Care and Raising of Pegasii. There will be a sequel series to it. Also, how's everyone feel about PinkieDash? How's everyone feel about Dash marrying Pinkie and raising Scootaloo as one big, happy, crazy family? I have this idea in my head that goes along those lines.
Also, I have an idea for a series of Twilestia shorts.
My two favorite villains together. Hmm...maybe they invite Cadence to their wedding.
Or lead an invasion of the Crystal Empire together.
Because people like to have things. What's mine is mine and what is mine is not yours unless I freely give it to you. Any State that tries to take it is going to get buckshot in its face.
Where'd this come from? We've been discussing Communism in my literature class. Really nasty stuff.
Anyway, I'm not going to be able to update for a while since I'm busy with school projects.
I'll see you soon if not before.
