After much searching, and with the help of many friends, I found the mysterious portal. The ultimate weapon of light has been an item that I have wanted for quite some time. It was hard work, but worth it in the end. Someone asked me about naming my newly acquired UW. There is only one name I have considered. That name is Ma'owr. Learned this from my father many cycles ago. It means a bright light, or metaphorically speaking, bright and cheerful eyes.

Do not let evil get the best of you, but overcome evil with good.

Even though the tongue is a small part it boasts great things. One word can cause great pain.

Better a small meal shared in love than an extravagant feast served with hatred.

It has been said that one does not know what they have until they have lost it. How true this is. Many seem to chase after a larger plat pouch or other possessions. If anyone ever found this journal and read it, I want them to know that life is to short to chase after things that are here this turn and gone the next. A true friend holds far greater value than any object one can hold in their hand. Take every chance you get to tell your friends and family how much you love them. Without love, life would have no meaning.

The one who speaks many words is full of pride and emptiness, but even the fool is considered wise when he does not speak. The wise will speak gentle but few words.

The words of evil people kill, but the speech of the just will save.

I am learning that solitude is not the answer I am looking for. The answer is quite the opposite. One can learn more in a polite discussion than from all the books in the lands.

If you only love the lovable, do you expect a pat on the back? I tell you, love your enemies. Help and give without expecting anything in return. I promise, you will not regret it.

Good friend, follow your father’s good advice, and do not wander off from your mother’s teachings. Wrap yourself in them from head to foot. Wear them like a necklace.

For wisdom is better than all the wealth in the world, nothing you could wish for can be compared to it.
