Tattoo.

Most of you wouldn't know, but I have a tattoo. I got it during the summer after my freshman year of college. I had always wanted one for some reason; probably mostly just wanted to feel like I was in control and so, if I wanted to get a tattoo I was going to get a tattoo by-golly! 

My tattoo is in a place that not most people can see easily, but it's a cross with a heart in the center. I seriously just walked into a tattoo parlor in Tulsa, pointed at the picture, and said "do it". The reason I didn't put much thought into it is simple as this:    IT WAS A STUPID DECISION.

Getting a tattoo wasn't the stupid part. It was why I got it that was stupid. Let's just say, I was in a longterm relationship that had ended a couple weeks prior. I was told that I should never get a tattoo and that I would be broken up with if I did... yada, yada, yada. Like I said, I wanted to know that I was in control. I got a tattoo because that's what I wanted at the time and I wanted to make a point. 

Yea, so it's dumb. I know that now. But hey, when you are young and in love you make dumb decisions sometimes. If I could go back, I would have not got a tattoo based on the reasons I did. I am actually contemplating getting another one. One with lots of thought and purpose behind it. I'll keep you posted...
