It's been about 2 years since I pulled the trigger. I can't say I'm still any closer to finding out what I was made for. Not that it matters. I'm happy. I had to feel the pain of having a monster in the family. Every day, worse than the last. Thanks to the actions I take, other fillies and colts don't have to suffer that traumatic time. People like my father. They don't deserve life, like us ponies do. Sometimes, we may not be perfect, yes. But, after Twilight and her friends were able to teach people. Teach people better ways to live their life, I learned that it's the flaws that make us who we are.

I came to understand the flaws, the addictions and the reasons behind all of that. However, there are still some. The ponies who just harm. Hurt. Scar. For their own selfish gain. I don't consider them my kind. And even though I may not see my friends any more, I know their happy. Safe. Sheltered from the revolting sight of reality. Be that as it may, I am just one person. I only took the path I did because of that light coated prick. But there are others... Others who want to see the world bloom. Others who want to see beauty.

I encourage them. No matter what hardships you may face in your life, you can't just give up, and leave the 'fighting' to people like me. Do something. Make a filly smile. Say hi to a neighbor. These little things that ultimately illuminate peace, and kindness. So go on. Whoever may be reading my diary, be you a rival or an ally. A neighbor, or from another universe entirely. Carry the magic of friendship. Everyone you meet, everyone you have met. All of them, potential monsters. We don't choose who we are. It's up to the friends and family who surround us to do the right thing...
