TATTOOS

"Like an exotic veil, tattooing embraces the mystique of the underworld. In being tattooed we connect ourselves to the ancient world, accompanied by these images breathing within our skins. Like a bizarre reference library, we are Keepers of the Images. We carry an archive of images and symbols...representing life, death and all that throbs with a vibrant force."

For everyone that doesn't knows me, i have a tattoo.  I can hear you all thinking "what was she thinking?!" and things like that.  I know tattoos are permanent, i know i can't get rid of it now its there.  But you know what? I don't want to get rid of it.  It's a part me that I have grown to love and my tattoo represents many things in my life that will always be there. I don't regret getting my tattoo done.
But if you still have your doubts about tattoos, read up a bit on them, and you may be surprised at what you discover.
This rose is a symbol of love, of beauty and of human life. The rose is a common tattoo seen today...no one knows why...care to ask?
I still have to get a picture of my tattoo,....but yeah, you'll have to wait.  Its a Gemini symbol next to my right hip bone.  Watch out boys.....
These are a few tribal tattoos i found. They're called "celtic" tattoos b'cos they originate from celtic art.  Pretty cool huh?....look at those bodies...*ahem* pieces of artwork.
