  7. >You are Starlight Glimmer
  8. >Not many ponies know this about you, but you like moths. You have a large poster of a moth in your room.
  9. >Most ponies like butterflies, but you think moths are beautiful.
  10. >Like the butterfly, the life cycle of the moth represents starting anew. And when the silkworm emerges from its pupa as a beautiful moth, its cocoon can be unravelled into the softest fabric in Equestria.
  11. >But there is something unique to moths. Moths cannot navigate on their own. They navigate by transverse orientation, maintaining a constant angle relative to the moon to fly in a straight line.
  12. >This is why moths circle artificial lights: they get confused and maintain a constant angle relative to it.
  13. >You can’t navigate on your own either, and sometimes you’ve circled bad things because you thought they were the moon, thought they were the right thing to do.
  14. >But friendship is the moon. Your friends help you fly straight and do the right thing.
  15. >Most ponies like butterflies, but you think moths are beautiful.
  16. >Maybe someday someone will find you beautiful too.
