Why does your signature on your posts hold so much meaning to you? Mine is: A Do Da Quantakeeah Ad a nv a Do. It means Father hear my spirit in Cherokee. It means alot to me because it is a sort of chant in my head everyday. That and I love my Native American heritage and languge. It is beautiful.

Mine right now is simple, LOL: I want to educate people about homelessness. Like MI, there is so much stigma and many people don't understand or know how to feel about it. Some are uncomfortable. I want people to learn, and understand, and feel support for the topic whether the person has a home or is homeless. It can be scary for someone who is just becoming homeless too. It can help to hear from someone who has been through it that things will be ok.

Good for you inkblot! You're right. There is so much people don't know about homlessness. I can not stand it when people see the homeless and say " Get a job." More often than not it is due to mental illness that keeps these poor souls on the street. And in today's economy more and more people are becoming homeless.

Mine just reminds me to not stay the same. It reminds to continuely grow as a person and find new things to learn and be a better person.

The quote by George Clooney reminds me that even if I do try something new and I fail it is still ok at least I tried it.

My signature changes all of the time. Right now it'd just a cute little banner I made with a quote, and ever since I made my blog here on PC there has always been a link to it in my signature...I guess because I figure somebody besides myself is interested in reading it...I know I like to read other people's bogs.
Thanks for this!

I don't have a signature yet....I will have to sometime next week.
There are a few I like but I can't narrow it down yet...

"That which does not kill me makes me stronger"

"In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play."

"In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule."


"I'm lost, I have gone to find myself. If I should return before I get pback please ask me to wait"....

Music is extremely important to me, so I always have lyrics that mean something to me. I change them all the time to fit with how I'm feeling at the time.

the three pictures in my signature each represent something to me.

the boy in red saying 'i miss you' reminds me of someone i lost.

the boy with black hair wearing a crown with a plushie is a character from an anime i really like. he kind of reminds me of myself in a way. i really like the picture, too. it's vulnerable but serious.

the last is one of the hyenas from the lion king, being clawed. the lion king is my favourite movie and has always meant a lot to me. hyenas are my favourite animals and have always been a symbol present in my life. despite scars and hurt, i survive.

the line below the pictures is a line from a manga- i like the line. it makes sense.

the song lyrics are from david cook's permanent. they're good lyrics.
Thanks for this!

Music and lyrics have always been very important to me, they've gotten me through a lot of rough times. My signature is lyrics from one of my favorite songs. I like the symbolism on the cover and the lyrics describe perfectly the place I am mentally right now.

Aahh, the night is calling, and it whispers to me softly,

I like this post!!

Mine is just a little diddy I heard somewhere, and it just serves as a reminder to myself, and hopefully to others, that we are okay just as we are. We are okay with all of our disorders and all of our faults.

We are okay!!

Mine is pretty self explanatory. The reason it means so much to me is the struggle I have every day to push the negativity down and let the positive thoughts and feelings win. I put on a good show...but have such a constant struggle within myself to really feel the way I pretend to feel. Peace, love, happiness, and well being is what I desire the most. The plan is to continue the charade until it finally works for real. We all deserve all those things

I don't laugh nearly enough and mine reminds to do that. Jeff Dunham (Jeff-f-fah Dun-ham) can crack me up no matter my mood and I just love Peanut. I thought about changing it but I do need to laugh more, so for now, peanut stays.

Mine is not a picture - just a cool pink font with my username, and then my REAL name. I do this mainly because where I am a moderator I want people to feel like they can call me by my real name if they like, i think it comes across as friendly(or well at least i hope it does LOL)

My siggy, written by one very intelligent person, tries to show balance in life. That you are probably missing something if you only take religion, or if you only take science. The two can be and are blended quite naturally!

The other is a disclaimer so no one thinks I have any power to do or be here! Have no fear!

Mine is "I don't want to die, but I'm not keen on living either".
My Mum said it's from a Robbie Williams song. It means a lot to
me because that's how I feel when I'm severely depressed and
suicidal - I don't necessarily want to die, but I don't want to live
because of the pain. It's, to me, saying that sometimes death
seems like the only escape.
