Clark Kent (Sept 21 2013)

A few weeks ago I was at the ALAIZ Invazion and the homie Dr. MaD asked me: "Have you ever drawn... yourself?", to which I answered "yes" without a thought. But I soon realized that maybe in a sense he was right to ask...

Last night I performed at Hip Hop Karaoke Montreal with the talented Sam I Am and Leah McFly, costumes and all. After getting the get-up and make-up off, fellow legend Chuko called me the "Clark Kent of HHK". Of course I laughed hysterically, but then it hit me: it really doesn't take much to lead a double life. One on stage vs one at school, one on paper vs. one in real life, but based on symbolic interactionism, everyone is always living a double life, because you're never who you really are until you're alone... or is your existence only validated by having it bounce off of others?I even find myself introducing myself with two different names because one connotes my past and people who've seen me change, the other connotes what I choose to exteriorize and put out into the world... but whether people know it or not, I am always both, and they are one.

The Legend Of... | Apr. 10, 2013 | Microskillz • TheCrazies [AileReve] • Boih • Mags • MnemoSyn

“Fire is the element of power. The people of the Fire Nation have desire and will, and the energy and drive to achieve what they want… Earth is the element of substance. The people of the Earth Kingdom are diverse and strong. They are persistent and enduring. Air is the element of freedom. The Air Nomads detached themselves from worldly concerns, and they found peace and freedom. And they apparently had great senses of humor! Water is the element of change. The people of the Water Tribes are capable of adapting to many things. They have a sense of community and love that holds them together through anything. It is important to draw wisdom from different places. If you take it from only one place it become rigid and stale. Understanding others, the other elements, the other nations, will help you become whole.” –Uncle Iroh

“The true mind can weather all the lies and illusions without being harmed. The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed. Since beginning-less time, darkness thrives in the void, but always yields to purified light… In the era before the Avatar, we bent not the elements but the energy within ourselves… To bend another’s energy, your own spirit must be unbendable, or you will be corrupted and destroyed.” –Lion Turtle
