A black "Buddha" (depiction of what outsiders consider the Buddha). Rather apropos for you Vaj, since you are a practicing Buddhist, starting out as an outsider to the Eastern traditions.

I love black cats. I had one once, she was not very sociable but I loved her so. She died young of a mysterious illness. Her undercoat turned white, so she was black but if you rubbed her fur back she looked all smokey. She was fine one minute, meowing for her breakfast, and next thing I know my other cat comes up with the strangest look on his face...weird. So I looked for Stormy and she had just keeled over, gone.

I buried her in a great place. She was the runt of the litter and my hub said not to pick her, but I had to.

Kindest Regards, all!

Luna, you have such excellent taste in choosing your avatars. I very much liked your earlier one, but your moth truly stands out! I love the shades of green.

Juan's Avatar reminds me of home.

And thank you! It is home, sort of. It's about an hour up the road, a place called Flagler Beach. I like to go there to unwind.

I like the avatar you chose. It is very fitting for you!

This avatar reminds me of when i lived in Sarasota for a while... 8 months or so, i think... it's been awhile...

in any event... it evokes the feeling of a relaxed, warm summers day.

anyone think it is interesting that the computer word adopted the term "avatar" to mean one "viritual" computer self? knowing, of course, that the term Avatar in Sanskrit is meant to indicate the emmanations of MahaBrahma?

neat, huh?

Its made from metal actually but still close!

The black Buddha looks cool reminds me of the wooden one I have in my bedroom.

Is it too late to play? Lunamoth--your avatar is beautiful--I can't help but think of garden faeries--or (LOL, I hope?) Tinker Bell?

And I just have to break the rules a little and comment on the kitty, too. NOW I know where my little friend goes at night--she has been out posing for avatars!

I cant figure out what your avatar is InLove, but I wanted to play. It might be some sort of vortex in space, like on star trek or a bit of a painting but is probably something else entirely.

Golden Buddha statues will always remind me of our trips to China when we adopted our daughters. Both of them were blessed in a Buddhist temple, if that's the correct way of phrasing it.

BTW, thank you to everyone who complimented my moth

Very nice avatar, lunamoth. It is very fitting for you. I would've chosen it myself!

Abogado del Diablo · 04-29-2005, 04:45 PM

That bo tree reminds me of the liveoak in our front yard.

The out-reaching hand makes me thing of volunteerism, helping the homeless, big brother big sister, and generally high levels of menschlikeit. (Like mensch as in "Be a mensch!" a man. Only in this case a man is someone who always does good things, just and loving things, and goes out of his way to help people. menschlikeit is that quality.)

Your avatar dauer reminds me alot of Elliott Ness (one of the untouchables).

For some reason, Q, I never had looked so closely at your avatar. Until now I thought it was a knight kneeling at the foot of the cross rather than a modern soldier! Either seems fitting for you...
