The Answer That Was Always There
The other day I was reading someone's blog, and came upon a single sentence that struck me in the best way possible. It was something that I had always known, but that I didn't know that I had always known. You may think that to be quite a contradiction, but I'm sure you'll understand what I mean after I tell you what that something is.
At the time I read it, I was compelled to quote him in my comment, and tell him I totally agreed, but I didn't do anything more than that.
Today, as I was watching an episode of - you guessed it - My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (with Rivvy - we sync up the timing with Skype and watch together), a certain scene at the end reminded me of that very sentence from someone's blog.
I doubt I need to tell you which episode this is from...
Right when I saw this expression on Pinkie's face, I instantly remembered that sentence...
(I hope you don't mind me taking this out of context, SCS, though I'm sure you won't; I've linked your blog in the nested spoiler below).
Here's SCS' blog that I am quoting him from:

After seeing Pinkie's emotional expression of love, I just knew that I had to make a blog. I believe what SCS said from the bottom of my heart. Love is the meaning of life.
There are many different kinds of love, and each kind is special in its own way. There is a kind of love for anything. There is a kind of love for family, for a significant other (spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend/etc.), for friends, for animals, for nature, and there is a kind of love for objects and other things...
But in the end, what matters is that you have it. No matter what life may bring you... no matter how hard things can get... there is nothing that should be able to take away your capacity to love.
The ultimate goal of my blog is this:
People might say that words can lose value if used to often. But I'm here to tell you otherwise. You are you, and when you use a word and truly mean it, then you do truly mean it, and using it over and over again does not weaken its value - it strengthens it. So I want you to remember that love is a powerful word, but it's more than just that...
Love is the meaning of life.
And the meaning of life is love.
Honestly,
Miles
