Wonderfully written! I like the idea of a tattoo representing that one's body is their own and it's their choice what to do with it. And I love the tattoo you got. Elegant and timeless.
I always wanted tattoos (despite my religious family being very against tattoos) but didn't get my first one until I was 26. I'm really glad I waited until I felt more settled into myself and what would make sense to keep as a part of me forever. My first tattoo was a quill! I just got my 11th and will be starting my 12th in September. I just love tattoos so much. There are so many amazing tattoo artists out there and I love adorning my body with beautiful artwork.
Regarding family and tattoos, my 18-year-old niece recently informed me that she is the now the reigning "golden child" (such an icky idea) of the family because while they're proud of everything I've accomplished, I have tattoos lol (She secretly wants to be a tattoo artist).
Thank you so much for reading this for sharing your experience here! Wow! 11 and a 12th on the way. That is *very* cool. Wishing both you continued freedom and your niece aspirations fulfilled.
