I find it interesting to see all of the Avatars that everyone has chosen. As I get to know each of you a little, it intrigues me even more as to why each of you have chosen your Avatars. Here I go first.
This is a depiction of Jean Valjean, the main character in the book Les Miserables. Bienvenu (which in some languages closely resembles the word for 'Welcome') was a minor character, the Bishop of Digne. The Bishop had a profound effect on the ex-convict Valjean by bestowing his hospitality on him. Valjean dedicated his life to virtue and serving others. Bienvenu and Valjean are both an inspiration to how I live my life.
I chose this particular depiction for its simplicity and humility that I saw in it. I hope that I can someday fulfill that in my life.
Okay...your turn!!
