Who UB?

                                                                   (Who UB?) 

Nourished from the root, through an intricate turn of events; embodiment of that you seek:  while denying who you are.

                                                                 Bearing its character, shadow to light:

                                                        Persona interpretation followed by reputation.

A quote by Abraham Lincoln

Character is like a tree, and reputation is like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it. The tree is the real thing.
