I have spent some time thinking, and realised that we always ask others how they feel about themselves. But what about all the time spent in personal reflection? I think, in order to show more of our colours, and share our interests, everypony should post two phrases, describing themselves, and a picture that represents your interests. for example. ShyGuy- "I like my tea hot, and my bass down low" "Let me do the talking said the voice in my head, so I let that voice make the choices instead"
Hmm.... A difficult challange indeed, since I'm so used to being able to act like different facets of myself, depending on what the situation calls for. "I am a collection of information, of thoughts, of dreams. It is these things that mold a man, not the hands of other beings." "To be serious is to hide your joviality from those who can not take you as you are."
While my signature line works, it's a bit specific. These two lines conflict heavily together, but that's the only way they make sense to me. 30 Seconds to Mars - Beautiful Lie: "Try to let go of the truth; The battles of your youth. 'Cause this is just a game. It's a beautiful lie." In Flames - My Sweet Shadow (The Quiet Place title was actually inspired by In Flames, where a theme of the story was inspired by My Sweet Shadow and ATR's - Not Alone) "Fueled, these new shores burn. Dark past lies cold. Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you, I look no more." Image: Moon(light) This represents harmony (not inspired by the Elements. I've enjoyed the moon and its light for a decade). How everything can come together to create the perfect serenity. Beautiful, yet prideless all in its own right. I enjoy silence, which the world can offer in purity.
"In the end, mistakes only make you stronger. Use them to your advantage." "You have to solve your own problems; that doesn't mean you can't receive help from someone else." Image: King Zephiel of Bern I don't know why, I just connect with him. If I felt the world was being torn apart piece by piece, I think I'd try to change it with whatever means neccesary, even if it means awakening an ancient race that could destroy the very thing Zephiel is trying to save.
Surpass my desires, because peace comes from within I let the darkness be my guiding light. "For when one cannot see; one cannot see what one does not have." (Edited image for something out of my own image collection)
"Knowledge and wisdom are good things, but a warm heart will change the world." "In my own world, I can always find shelter."
"If I'm not having fun, it's barely worth doing." *Giggle* Foxy's one. ...And I can't think of anything else.
"Whoever said nothing was impossible never divided by zero." I made that up, lol. "If you really want something and work hard to achieve, it's not a desire anymore, it's a need."
"Would it be okay if I... gave you a hug?" "I have no idea what's going on, but I'm enjoying spending this time with you guys." The quotes are things I have actually said to people I know, and the picture represents me because I like anime (Death Note is good), and people are ALWAYS playing with my hair.
"I'm not gonna just sit here and do nothing, somepony has to do something!" ...meh. cliche actually. "I'm in despair!" ...Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei.
Extremely cheesy but: "Always follow your dreams!" ~The words I live by "Anyone can make their future whatever they want it to be."~ More words that inspire me, and this quote is from one of the greatest movie trilogies of all time (Back to the Future) Dunno why, but something about mountains, lakes, and snow really inspires me. So I chose this picture!
"once you find your center you are sure to win." "if you heart is made of stone its harder to hurt it, but once it reaches its limit it breaks in a thousand pieces; but if you conserve you heart as it is you will have more scars, but your scratches will always heal" i dont know. i just have a thing with deserts, the peace and the lonelines that it represents, i just identify myself with it... @Chapien - truly one of the most epic trilogies ever made.
"It is foolish to conjure up woe where none exists" Brom the Storyteller from Eragon "Most people would rather be certain they're miserable, than risk being happy." Robert Anthony
I have a couple of "words of wisdom" I guess you'd call 'em. I use these as personal mottos and sometimes have given them to others. Usually for laughs. "Relativity is absolute." -- This came about from an ethics debate over what people perceive as right and wrong. My view is that no matter how strongly you believe something, it's still your own belief, and no one person's word can apply to everyone. The one true law of morality is that there's no one true law of morality. "The best work you'll ever do is the work you do for the sake of being lazy." -- I created this motto as I got more experienced in programming. It's supposed to mean that when you do something right the first time and plan it in a way that makes it flexible, you won't have to go back and do it again. We programmers hate doing sh*t twice. It can apply outside of just programming too, as I think truly inventive thinking isn't when you can think of ten ways to solve one problem, or can solve ten problems with ten solutions, but when you can solve ten problems with one solution. And the more problems you solve in one go, the lazier you can be later. As for one picture that describes me... huh. Never thought about that, I'll have to get back to you. lol
"Knowledge is power, thus do we guard it well" "Your Honor is you life, let none dispute it!!!" I chose these two because one I read alot and two I will always honor any word that I give to my friends.
People on the internet like the same things I do?! they need only say so, and they would be accepted for our common interests, but they never always do! *dramatic face closeups* I am In Despair! Our common likes have left me in despair! *ahem* that aside, I love reading some of the interesting things you ponies think about yourselves.
