Tattoo
I am this totally huge tattoo freak, and every one of my tattoo's mean something personal to me. I feel that they all tell the spiritual journey of who I am! The first tattoo that I got was right before I graduated high school, and it was two little chinese charecters that says Jesus Christ, and it was suppose to symbolize that I was going to be walking with Christ through the next stage of my life. The next one was during my freshman year of college and I got a butterfly to represent the process of becoming free and flying on my own. If you know my story, you know how I was, I guess I kind of let myself become way too free. The next tattoo was at the end of that phase and it was my zodiac sign, and a little Jesus fish for the start of my new phase. For about a 6 month period I lived outrageously. I guarded my heart and had strict accountability. I didn't serve at church, and I allowed God to heal my wounds. It was a humbling period of my life. Last Easter I was baptized again, and I got a tattoo to remind that God was there in my beginning and he will be there with me to the end. The point of all of this is that I always have people ask me if I will regret my tattoo's when I am a mom or when I am in my career. To me regretting them is like regretting my story, and I live a life of no regrets. Because every good and bad decision has shaped me into the person God has created me to be in order for me to do the things that he has lead me to do.
