A quote I picked up today! "Words are the voice of the heart." -Confucius

So guys, I'm going to change my avatar (again since I can't decide), so anyone who wants to give recommendation can! (I'll still keep the skin color, eyes, and hair color)

I think you could change to a nice yellow for summer, and then change to a deep red for autumn.

Maybe a pink?

Oh! I think you should choose coral for your background. It fits that summery taste and is also wonderful for autumn.

Ha, sometimes deciding to change avatar is hard. I think you're avatar is good enough!

also anyone here from sandpoint idaho

nope I'm from the pech state near Atlanta

i have a questin ifyou had anyone you could bring with you to a dangerous plant who would it be?

My best friend, for sure!

My bestie definitely! That way, we could just talk for hours not caring if we are stuck, well, we possibly would be worried if we confront the dangerous plant!

i mean if its dangerous like most likely to oof you i'd personally take my enemy Gavin but if it just survival of the fittest or whatever maybe my best friend or Megan Leavey and her bestest boy Rex, never said we couldn't bring doggos (look her up if you don't know who she is)
