"Sometimes life is like this dark tunnel, you can’t always see the light at the end of the tunnel, but if you just keep moving, you will come to a better place."

                                                      -Uncle Iroh (TV Series: Avatar the Last Airbender)

One of my favorite shows is Avatar the Last Airbender from Nickelodeon. Although it is a children's show I'm very fond of it for not only the amazing graphics and bending, but for the life quotes it provides.

          Uncle Iroh is a brother to fire lord Ozai (There are 4 nations, each containing their own form of government. The 4 nations represent each element :fire, water, earth and air.) And unlike his tyrannic brother, he prefers peace, tea, and enlightened conversations.

He is one of my role models, demonstrating discipline, compassion and understanding for your surroundings. He is open minded, creating space for those who are troubled and weak.

          The sequel to Avatar the Last Airbender is the Legend of Korra.
Korra, our new avatar (the bridge between spirits and humans, creating peace in the world) and her mission is the same as every avatar's: to balance the world and its people. This is my second favorite show.

Co-creator Bryan Konietzko is a wonderful and inspirational person. One of my favorite doodles is of Commander Bumi and this bunny spirit, Boomju.

  1. I love Avatar the Last Airbender! It is one of my favorite shows. I would watch it with my family. Which wasn't something we did often, but I think the parents like the deeper well thought out story line. While the younger kids enjoyed the drawings and characters.
    Avatar the Last Airbender is so deep and can be enjoyed by the young and old. It really does teach their viewers about peace and harmony on a spiritual level
