Someday I want to get a love tattooed to my heart. My body is my journal, and my tattoos are my story. Books are to me as homemade tattoos are to an inmate. Can't get enough of them. Wear your heart on your skin in this life. I am a canvas of my experiences, my story is etched in lines and shading, and you can read it on my arms, my legs, my shoulders, and my stomach.
If people are honest with themselves when they choose a tattoo, the art will represent them better than anything that will ever come out of their mouth. The things that are most important to me are represented in the art that covers my body. My God, my family, my friends, my job, my social and historical beliefs and the aggressive or even violent nature with which I will protect all of them.....basically in that order of importance.
Is it scary or repulsive to some people? Yes. Does it change who I am? No. If anything it works as an outward conscience that will forever remind me of who I am and what is important during times of trial or long after my mind starts to fade due to old age if I'm blessed with a long life.That's the first thing I'm going to do after I realize my biggest ambition in life: going to heaven , the opposite of hell . We are all a little damaged. Some of us more than others.
