My Tattoo

2007-05-18

I have finally decided on a tattoo!  This is just the beginning of it,  I'm having this put between my shoulder blades and eventually it will run all the way down my spine to my tailbone and around both hips to the front of my pelvic bone.  I have been thinking about this for a long time now and every element has a personal meaning to me.  I have wanted a tattoo since I was about 9 or 10 years old.  Now that I am 33 I have finally decided on something I can feel good about having on my body forever.

It starts with the trinity knot, representing, for me, Mind, Body & Spirit.  The jewel in the center of the heart is my son's birthstone and represents my love for my son.  Notice how both sides of the heart never join; this represents my broken/incomplete heart and the symbols hanging off of the partial hearts at the bottom are the Sagittarius sing (my sign) and the Capricorn sign (my ex's sign).  This signifies my relationship and how important that relationship is and always will be in shaping my life, my future and the rest of my relationships. Also, because the hearts are not complete and face away from one another, it expresses that the relationship is over and have moved on from one another, taking only what we need into the rest of our lives.  My friend thinks it's a strong statement to make, but it's important to me that my tattoo mean something deeply personal and it does.

Nooooooooo!!!! Do you really think you need something like that??? Sure wish you wouldn't, but absolutely know you will make up your own mind, but if I could twist your arm, I sure would!
