But I'd imagine a world that could permit the presence of a being like Ungoliant and the damage that she and Melkor caused could also have incurable hurts.
I always differentiated that as an evil act. Giving birth doesn't have any ill-will or hatred behind it.
To continue with *my* half ;) this assumes that Feanor's pride was derived wholly from the existence of his half-brothers. I think his pride--and hence, his paranoia--was inevitable, and the Valar were still around to make him wary.
(Because I have always thought he was more afraid of the Valar than Fin & Fin, but that's just me....)
Of course he'd have his pride. He'd still be the greatest of the Noldor - that wouldn't change. And whether he feared the Valar more than F&F is rather irrelevent. What I'm thinking is that, without F&F, Feanor wouldn't be distracted by the possibility of them usurping his position as favorite.
Maybe we should just chalk it up to "life's a bitch", hmm?? ;)
Rats. Using my own argument against me? Clever, clever ;D
:) 'S my job!
Does your Equine Science major require a lot of field work or is it mostly classroom?
Right now, it doesn't, but that's just because I'm taking crap classes required for my major, but are things like economics. Later I think there will be a lot of lab time. I know there's one class which I really hope to take, Preparation of Horses for English Competition, that I think is mainly all field work. You get assigned are horse to get ready for shows, work with it the whole year, then sell it. But yes, the field work does sound like so much fun!! My plan for the spring is to volunteer at the mare/foal barn and play with the babies!!! :)
