I already posted this on the Members of the Church thread, but it was an incredible experience for me, so I'm going to put it here too. It's about my beliefs.
I had a really spiritual experience two nights ago.
I haven't really mentioned this on here before but, since I'm the youngest in my family, I'm the only sibling at home.
And... it sucks sometimes. I miss my siblings so much. It's a big gap between me and my next youngest sibling... but we're close. And... it's really hard, knowing that to some/one of my siblings, my home... their home, once... will never be their home again. My brother... has a home of his own. And I barely remember the time before he left home.
And that hurts.
And hearing in books about sibling rivalries and among friends... they don't seem to care about their siblings. They don't seem to care, when their brothers and sisters leave home, that the people they've grown up beside aren't there anymore. It feels, sometimes, like I'm the only person in the world who misses my siblings. I just felt... alone in feeling this kind of pain. I was curled up in the corner of my bed when I felt like I should go to the window.
And then I looked out the window, and saw the moon and thought "we've been on that!" And it reminded me of this video:
Spoiler
And it was unthinkable, unimaginable that...
Jesus suffered for us. For me. He knows every kind of pain. He's experienced what I'm experiencing right now. He knows what it's like to have siblings move away, and I am in no way alone.
And I realized that He knows the deepest, darkest, stupidest parts of our souls. And he loves us, wholly, purely, and completely, anyway.
The Spirit was washing over me, and I knew that Jesus knew exactly what I was feeling. I imagined Him sitting next to me and wrapping his arms around me and holding me.I have a testimony that He knows us. All of all of us. And He loves us. All of all of us.

I'm so happy that I could brighten your day. Although saying I did isn't quite accurate... you know who I mean. I hope you can feel God's love during your trials.
And to be clear, I'm not scolding people who aren't as close to their siblings. It's just that I think I'm uncommonly close with mine, and I'm sad that it sometimes seems like I'm alone in missing them.
I didn't read it as scolding at all.

That's good! I was a little worried rereading mine, seeing it from a scolding perspective.

I didn't see it as scolding either, I think it's awesome that you have that.

Funny conversation overheard:
"OH MY GOSH IT'S SO COLD!!"
"SUCKS TO BE YOU YOU DON'T HAVE A JACKET!"
"I DO IT'S IN MY ARMS RIGHT HERE!"
"THEN WHY AREN'T YOU WEARING IT?"
"BECAUSE I'M STUPIIIIID!!"

Is that a Fablehaven reference I sense in your member title?
-
Yeah
My little brother was reading it and I saw the line and got a burst of nostalgia right around the end of Ookla Season (and the time to replace the member title). It’s stayed because idk what else would go there

I love those books. And Seth's messages on the walls are legendary in my family.
Welcome to Seth's House.
Seth rocks!
Seth is the man.
You're in a Turkish prison!
Enjoy the food!
If you're reading this, you can read.
Is it still dripping?
Use the meal mats as toilet paper.
And so forth.
(typed from memory. I probably missed some, and they're out of order.)

Last SU for a while...
I'm going to be limiting my time on the Shard. I won't be gone completely, but it's become a bit of a not-good habit, and I'm going to limit it.
It's not that y'all aren't awesome, because you ARE! It's just that you're too awesome, and I spend too much time with y'all, instead of doing more... productive things.
Goodbye!
PS If I'm failing to limit my time on here, please yell at me.
I'll still respond to this thing, and I think I'll still do some stuff on here. But less often.

It’s awesome!!!! The first line gave me Dragonfly Song vibes but then that grew into more. I really love the idea with Night and Day personified and the torch. I’m not much of a writer so I can’t give you any technical feedback but perhaps the Night changing her mind could come directly after it sets Nya on her quest and she keeps trying to reach her? Idk. It’s really good though!

I have just one line to figure out in my Surface Pressure: Kaladin Edition.
This is difficult.

"Trust" could be a valid work to use there, if you wanted to rework that line.
-
I love that so much.
-
Why thank you.
I also made We Don't Talk About Moash(see Cosmere! The Musical for details).
Bye again.
-
Can we pleeeeease revive Cosmere! The Musical? It's not quite dead yet, but it doesn't deserve to die ever. I remember happy hours before I even had an account on the Shard browsing the songs. Don't leave me, thread. I love you.
HELP ME, ONE AND ALL! PRESERVE THE BEAUTY!

Has anyone else watched/is anyone else watching the Lockwood and Co. TV series?
Or read the books?
No?
Okay. I'll just be in the corner quietly grinning insanely to myself.

I am currently drawing Kaladin.
Here are the things I am unashamedly 110% procrastinating drawing:
- His hair
- His scars.
- Because they're going to be on a wrinkled forehead...
- It's gonna be so hard...

I'M FINISHED!!
Look on my art thread to see the finished-ish product. The shading's... pretty iffy, but I'm pretty proud of it.
-
I'm rereading(well actually listening) to Wingfeather and just happened across this sentence in Warden and the Wolf King...
I just sat there with my hand over my mouth after moaning loudly.
Don't click if you haven't read all of Wingfeather.
SpoilerJanner never made it back to Chimney Hill.
