Ok, I have to admit this was not my idea.

I just fininshed my 30th post a few days ago.
I choose my avator image because of my user name. Khonsu was an egyption moon god. No I'm not trying to say I'm imortal or anything :rolleyes: (trust me I know how mortal I really am) I just have a fasination with night and the moon. Its kind of ironic, I use to learn about all different mythologys and folklors and the things that use to facinate me the most were old werewolf stories. I found it interesting how such a gental and kind beast evolved over time to the monster we now know. I really liked the 'good' werewolf stories. :confused:

I always felt kind of 'safe' in the night. I felt like I had the advantage, that was the time I felt most in control cause that was the time I was most alert. [there are peices to my puzzel that I haven't told yet and I am still trying to understand myself].

I'm also exteamly photosensative (light hurts my eyes) :cool: and I have really good night vision. because of this night has always seemed in a way my time. I don't know if this makes any sense.

I know I'm rambling a lot. I really wasn't planing on writing this much. By the way for anyone who read my post in the somber and remorse page, the whole night thing was sort of were I got the nickname Cat at my old school. Some kids called me that I really didn't protest.

Well thats the whole long story. :D
 
I chose my avatar image because it makes me think that the man in the image has a lot of weird stuff going on in his brain and he looks pretty sad and helpless about it. That's what I feel like a lot. It just seemed appropriate.
 
This is cool.

The first avatar I chose, the two clasping hands, was a symbol of our reaching out to & helping one another here.

My current one was about the closest thing I could
find to a wolf.

AAAAAAAHHHHHWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOO!!!

I can't say why I picked my avatar, I just know I hated to post with out it. I played around with survivor logos, I came up with a few I liked.

the raindow flag isn't meant to be a gay thing, more to say the storm is over and the skies are clearing.
 
Mr Don, I have a print of that image "Earthrise from the Moon" on the wall here at home, great picture.

I chose my Jeep for the simple reason that I drive a competition 4x4 for a hobby, something that relaxes me in a strange way.

I've been focusing on many child within issues lately and I recently discovered through a post what an avator was. So, I chose the avatar of my little Howard peeking out of the window at you guys kinda saying, "Hello dare! Folks!". :D As times change, I guess so will my avator! Thanks for asking...I'm curious too!

Howard
 
It's neat to know why people pick their avatars.
Or change them.

Jer, I see you finally got your coffee cup! ;) :D

I find this thread fascinating. My first avatar was of a little boy with big dark goggles on. And my current one is of a guy with dark sunglasses. I changed because the second guy seemed to represent me a little better. But I found myself attracted to these avatars because both of their eyes were hidden. It makes them seem a little more anonymous. And that's kind of how I feel.

I have finally chosen an avatar. This little guy appealed to me. I like the look of boyish joy on his face. Kinda reminds me of myself as a kid at those times I was happy.

Notice that he is also pulling himself up. Yeah. That's what it's all about to me. And you guys are helping to get me "over that bar".

My avatar?

Initially I wanted something cool like this...

'cause I'm into the martial arts. And then it was something cute like this...

...please don't ask.

The only thing that I found that fit close to my personality on this site though was the banana.

I think that it was a good choice. Makes me smile when I see it.

What more can I ask?
 
i chose this portrate of van gogh because it seems to capture me in many ways. the expression and mood seemed fitting i suppose. it captures my intensity and the isolation i feel at times.
 
The two clasped hands is where I feel I am now, thanks to the people here, I can perhaps help others on their journey to recovery. I am honored that I followed Victor in it's use, he has been an inspiration to all of us.......

Well I picked my because it isnt real. Kind of a monster. And that's how I feel most days, not real and a monster. Someone that people should run from. I just seems to fit the way I feel most days.
 
James,

You blew my thought out of the water! I thought it was Mr. Spock from Star Trek? (Logical, somewhat emotionless, always tries to think things through. Your posts throughout the site suggest this.)

I never thought you'd identify it as a monster 'cause I never thought of you as one! :)

JonathanKhonsu

BTW, This was a great choice for a thread!

Waumei

Thanks for the compliment. Have a feeling it'll be a while b4 I am as good as you though with the images. :)
 
James,

I ditto Marc; you are much too human & humane to be a monster, as your posts show with your support & compassion & insight.

If anyone was the monsters it was your perps not you brother!

Victor
 
Thanks guys for the support. Im slowly learning that is not me, but more times than not thats how I see me. Not human, a monster, ugly and gross. Easy to hate because Im not like everyone else. It's part of what tought myself when I was a kid, it was easier to believe I was ugly and gross and thats why noone loved me than to believe that my parents (the people Im sopose to honor and chearish and love) were doing anything wrong, it had to be me not them. I know thats not logical but thats the way I looked/look at it. But thanks for the kind words. They really help.

Well, I chose my name because I was trying to break through the cement to get at what was beneath.

The name continues to work for me as I rebuild my life in a manner that suits me better. Cement can be the foundation, the walls, whatever I want it to be. It is simple and elegant.

My avatar is an art deco looking image of a man hard at work. He is concentrating. The tool is a jackhammer, I think, but it could be a saw or a nailgun or something else.

I think of him as tearing down, digging, building, or whatever work I would like him to be doing...

I am lucky that I found an avatar that has fit me so well.

Peace,
James
