@yuri @nerthos I think the only power worth having comes not from seeking power over others but one's self.

@pony It's not about power over others, but over the world itself. You don't need godlike powers to control others.

@nerthos @yuri There's where most ponies get caught. Yes, life in our world is full of trials, some of which mean that we loose loved ones, (even if only, in my belief, temporarily). Feeling the pain of loss is necessary. Without it we'd become numb to joy as well, and that is not the same thing as self control or true power over self. I have born witness to the truth that there is a higher power which guarantees our happiness as long as it is happiness we seek. Through that power, and not our own, though the world as we know it may someday fall to pieces, we and those we hold dear can have security and peace. We should definitely stand up for what we believe in in politics and social situations, but, as you know, there are unavoidable limitations to our influence. What's more, I feel it is impossible to control anything or anypony beyond our own individual selves. I'd love to continue this convo, but my wife wants me... ^//^

@pony In fact, I know most people I know will die by the time I do, and it doesn't bothers me in the least. I seek to see the eternity, I can't do that without accepting that dear ones will die, and managing to avoid pain by it. And people can be controled, for they are not mystical beings, but organic machines.
