I wanted to get this particular tattoo because I am a firm believer in the power of infinite love; you figured that out already, right?
I have to imagine each person's tattoo has a story. Otherwise, what would be the point?
When I was younger, I was aghast at the thought of a tattoo. Thanks to programs like "Miami Ink" I got over that. Now, I know so many people who have them or who are considering getting one, I don't even think twice about it. I have a friend who got her kids initials in the infinity sign. It's lovely, although she did have some trepidation at telling her mom she got one. She's 48, by the way. I have another friend who was born on Halloween and she has a small jack 'o lantern.
I now work with several women who have tattoos. And honestly, their bodies are the perfect canvases for the art they have chosen to put on themselves. One woman has utterly glorious sleeves of vibrant and beautiful flowers. Another has a delicate circle of swirls and hearts around her wrist. Another woman just got a glorious dream catcher. And another has several I haven't had a chance to even look at to date. There may be more women with them, I just haven't seen them yet.
My kids are horrified I am even thinking of this. Perhaps we're switching roles? I don't enjoy pain, and I pretty certain this hurts. So, would I be happy or would I regret it?
What are your thoughts on tattoos?! Do you have one? Why did you chose it's design? Do you want more? Are some more significant than others? I really want to know!
After listening to a number of them, this is the one that won.
I love a song with Celtic flair.
