Hello Elizabeth, and welcome back.
I don't know why but your avatar and signature make me peaceful. I hope we'll get to know each other soon!

Glad to see you back Lizzy, I'm a Nietszche fan and as such much enjoy that very lovely quoteBack to my first avatar.
I have changed my signature for a quotation by Friedrich Nietzsche:
"What else is love but understanding and rejoicing in the fact that another person lives, acts, and experiences otherwise than we do…?"
I love the idea of loving someone for his/her differences, instead of being disappointed when one discovers his/her lover is not the same (as so many people are)..
"Americans should know the universe itself as a road, as many roads, as roads for traveling souls."
-Walt WhitmanThey have their worries, they’re counting the miles, they’re thinking about where to sleep tonight, how much money for gas, the weather, how they’ll get there—and all the time they’ll get there anyway, you see.
-Jack Kerouac
Why... Arigato, Aiko-sama.I like it very much and strongly agree.

Welcome on the forum and I'd be glad to know you better. You seem a very nice and intelligent girl.
Thanks, Tend! It's great to be back and see all these familiar faces again.Glad to see you back Lizzy, I'm a Nietszche fan and as such much enjoy that very lovely quote
Glad you like Nietzsche as well.

No avatar at all, (at least for now) so I suppose that is the most "genuine" choice I could make....

the luminous grass of the prairie hides
feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
but weighty and unmovable

Of course, our first concern is with your health but sometimes when you're feeling down, what you need is a little motivation and what better motivation is there to feel better than to make Virgil a little less lonely.
In all seriousness, I do hope you feel better soon, Kathy and I look forward to seeing your new avatar, your avs are always interesting.

Thanks, Idril and Virgil. Well, I decided to go with a nature theme avy for now, but for Virgil what could be more retro glamour than Bettie Page?

Well, I finally broke down and picked an avatar and signature. The avatar is the WWI flying ace and the signature is "optima dies ... prima fugit", which means "the best days are the first to flee". It is from Virgil's Georgics, and it is quoted by Willa Cather (or her editor) at the beginning of My Antonia.
Optima dies ... prima fugit
Newest signature is from one of my own poems, reminding us to look ahead, tomorrow's another day, yesterday is gone and we cannot change it!
Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way
that we cope with our lives...
oh,good line, Harris
I have made some changes....
how do you like this avvy?
better than old Seshomaru-sama (sp?). I'm missing him already
So I suppose I'll just fool around with this one for a couple of days.
why can't we have animated avatars? do they take up more storage or cause some other technical problems I don't understand (except driving people nuts?)
