Your gateway to endless inspiration
70% of all FiM episodes genuinely bring me to tears. It's not like I'm sobbing over them, but they definitely leave me choked up. There are so many messages and moments in the show that are so powerful and resonate with me so much more now that I'm an adult than they did when I was a kid.
The show addresses themes like growing, changing bad habits, acknowledging when you're wrong, and caring about yourself, those around you, and the world that you live in. It leaves me thinking how much better our world could be if we all had a little bit of faith in each other to do better.
I just finished watching S7 E13, where we learn about Applejack's parents. That's what sparked this rant. Grandpear crying and saying "I never should've left" genuinely BROKE something inside of me. You're telling me this 90 year old man abandoned his daughter for marrying someone from a family he didn't like, regrets it 40 years later AFTER HIS DAUGHTER IS DEAD? And now he's genuinely trying to change and to connect with his grandkids. Yeah, this is a show for kids, but it's so much more than that, too.
