Avatar Symbolisms

You, my friend, deserve the title of professional wordsmith, not I. That was rather beautiful, as are all of your descriptions.

And whats best about these what you say is that, even if they are incorrect, they give the person something to aspire to. Something to be.

You did rather well in describing that part of my personality, and you've also given me something more to work toward.

Thanks.

Thanks for taking the time and doing my avatar. I appreciated it.

Question asked for a reading after seeing the discussion thread related to this topic... So, here goes;

Without doubt, you have an affinity to the comic character you've chosen as your avatar. I know nothing of the character but you enjoy investigation.

Sifting through information looking for the answers. Sometimes, when you find them, you're left a little disappointed as you then ask yourself "is it really that simple?" or "after all that effort, that's all I get".

This is not a bad thing though as it gives you more vigor to find that which you truly seek.

The path to ones self is a strange one.

Learning about great discoveries and those who made them, left you with a feeling of 'dam, it's all been found, nothing left to search.'
But that's just not quite exact as you've discovered and that took you to look further.

Mysteries unfold faster than Scooby doo eats scooby snacks when you get your thinking cap on.

Anything new gives you the 'wow' factor momentarily, after which the 'how?' factor takes hold rather fast...

The sense of 'just starting out on this journey' leaves a vast landscape with a broad horizon in front of you. Opening up your eyes to a complex grasping of information is bewildering, yet a challenge you gladly accept.

Interesting, good stuff, may I ask you, what am I?

You're a socialiser. You enjoy the company of others and the hub-bub of the communal group, the contacts, conversation and shared experiences.

Emotions run high and fast and grow deeper with those you spend the most time with.

Bit of a romantic with a touch of flash bringing romance to a new art form. Springing new emotional concepts on people is a pleasure you enjoy giving away.

you organise and group friends into categories. Old friends are never forgotten as the song 'We'll meet again' rises in your mind when you think of them.

The future brings many things and your eager approach of it is looked forwards to by your wonder of what tomorrow will bring.

Thanks for that, I would say that is pretty accurate

Good job, happy future.

You feel a darkness in the world, you want to be free, your searching for that love, the love in the world, you can see it, you can almost reach it. Because you know with darkness, light still exists. The moon always shines at night. Light never disappears.

LOL just messing around, I'll leave this to the expert.

Heart to Heart relationships are your thing. Love does rain down in the concrete jungle.

Seize the day, Seize the moment, cherished, without falter.

The confusion and frustration of modern city life is a hussle you could do without. Close personal issues are on the top of your agenda, though priority gets in the way of what you prefer to do.

Imaginative, creative, adventurous.

Live the moment with life flexing through your whole. Embody the beauty, enshrine the loved.

The kindly warrior strikes the heat of passion with a loving, warm and open heart.

I'm not very busy right now, so I have the urge to try you out. Do you mind?
Of course I probably will be mostly wrong lol, but I'll just do it for fun.


You are a calm cool person.

You try to lead a pure life, you have started a fresh new lifestyle.

Your past heated problems has cooled down, life has become less stressful for now. But you have lost somebody who gave you warmth and light to your life. But you are fine, and will try and move on to a peaceful future.

Not bad. kinda close.

New lifestyles are my thing. Never held down a job longer than three years. Can't keep still, moved around a lot.

life's too short to stay in one place.

To me your avatar shows that you have two sides to you, a hidden side.

Is it real? Is it make believe?
Did you see that?
What I just did, slight of hand, faster than the eye can see.

Got a job for you, can you handle it? but keep it quiet..

While you're distracted, I'll make the best of the situation but you wont even notice after I'm done.
Passing the grade, bluffing the bluffers.

Very down to earth. What you see is what you get.

Coolness comes in gatherings, calm collected thoughts and actions earn respect. The face. recognised by most known by several.

business business business...a mans work is never done.. another day another fistfull of dollars.

chill with a brew by the pool, feet up. You're nobodies fool.

reply to post by Extralien


Thanks for that!! I like that, quite complementary.

I'm assuming your American as you said dollars - so you might not get the reference to the fast show (a brilliant sketch show - legendary)

For the life of me I cant find a clip of the you aint seen me... right? man, but he pops up at 4:49 in this one - but he don't do his line! Grrrr!

This is really cool.

What's mine say about me?

I can't do it as well as Extralien... But I would venture a guess along these lines:

- the horse is wondering exactly what was in that muffin.

- the spiders say 'watch out for the pandas'

Taking your time to observe your surroundings and to interact with it.

Being sure that what you experience and feel is what you need for yourself.
You phase out the useless and draw in the useful.

Generally you activity is centered around not being in a rush, but you know when to get really busy and why. The occasional burst of energy does you good and you know it, though you're happier taking things easy.

blending your time into the day and the day inot your time. bringing a balance to your actions and reason to your thoughts about how and why you make the actions.

"this can't be all there is" seems to slow you down sometimes and leaves you feeling a little lost and away from the herd, but you know that somehow, you're meant to feel that way.

There's a reason and you look too hard at times. Frustrating as it is, you'll see the path to greener pastures all in good time.

Well, between my name and avatar, I think it's pretty obvious that I look up to Sun Wu-K'ung, the Monkey King from Chinese mythology and one of the main characters in the great Chinese epic Journey to the West.
JTTW is actually my favorite story.
I highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of mythology and good stories in general.

en.wikipedia.org...

and the man (monkey) himself:

Any of you who've known me for a length of time will have noticed that I always end my posts with a icon.
Now, I've heard lots of stupid reasons (which I won't go into here) for me doing this, but the plain truth is that it is to mark my...er...monkeyness and to pay respect to the Handsome Monkey King.


(see, there it is again. hahahaha)
