Ah! So I'm guessing that you really took a lot from watching Zuko change and grow over time then? That's a really great way of looking at life I think. I mean certainly there are limitations to certain things in life but no one will ever be able to hold you back more than you allow them to and that also goes for how much you're willing to limit yourself as well. Sort of like the "be the change you want to see in the world" style of living I suppose. I try to keep a similar outlook on life as well. What sort of positive direction have you decided to steer towards then?

Hm. Well I tend to gravitate towards 'quirky comedy' so not everyone really enjoys my suggestions at times. Guess it depends on if you want something that has you engaged and thinking a lot of the time or just enjoying yourself.

EXACTLY!
I don't know, really. I've just been finding myself, ya know? I decided to just put myself out there and take what I can get and make it better. The only major major major change in my life that has steered me towards a more positive direction is me quitting a lot of the bad habits I had aquired. I'm just very hopeful now.

heh, I enjoy pretty much everything. I have an awkward personality so a lot of times I am attracted to things most people don't particularly understand or enjoy

That's a great thing to do. I mean I know I've certainly had to do a lot of soul searching and finding myself as well over the last few years and it's kind of confusing at times how I have changed into such a different person. I think it's a great thing to take the time to really evaluate your position on things such as your goals, spirituality (if you have it or not), charity and your ability to interact with others, etc. I know I've certain gotten much further in life by having a flexible disposition about things because there is always something to learn and grow from. Haha come to think of it that's probably why I also like Zuko so much too.

Awkward personality? Awe. I bet it's not that bad Hmm.. so are we talking quirky things like uh... Coen brothers movies or like really obscure indy films? I'm curious what these things are now. I also have a pretty strong tendency to find beauty in things other people find kind of odd or off-putting so I think I can relate a bit.

Uh... I think it happened at the finale of season 2 / beginning of season 3? Been a while so I'm not 100% sure on that but I am pretty sure it's around that time.

Alas this is as big as it gets. I never anticipated that this piece would be popular or that people would want to use it as a wallpaper so this is the original size (I would have worked larger otherwise) I think someone else on DA has used it (with permission) as part of a wallpaper.
