christmas countdown #8


Number 8:  Fluttershy

Christmas-Worthy Attribute:  Kindness

Why:  The Pegasus Fluttershy, from Hasbro's television show My Little Ponies: Friendship is Magic is one of the six main protagonists of the series.  She is (as her name suggests) incredibly shy, but she bears the Element of Kindness because of her unshakably sympathetic, kind-hearted nature.  I think this is important because around Christmas time, is it just me, or do people seem a little more open to the idea of being kind?  Of helping your fellow man (or pony) and meeting others with open arms (or hooves).  As far as I've seen, kindness is one of the most underrated virtues, and yet all of us need it desperately.  So why not take the opportunity to be a little kinder to others this Christmas?  Who knows?  You might really help someone.
