TATTOO

A form of body modification where a design is made by inserting ink, dyes and pigments, either permanent or temporary, into the dermis layer of the skin to change the pigment.

I do not have any tattoos. I am not against tattoos. I have not found the right tattoo for me.

I have heard so many stories about people getting tattoos. Some for good reason. Some for bad and others have a personal meaning that makes sense only to them.

When and if I decide to get a tattoo, I will use these two pictures merged together. 

My daughters name is Nevaeh. (heaven spelled backwards). Her middle name is Faith.

When I think of her I think about Heaven and Faith. The miracle she is and how she has changed my life.

This tattoo would honor her in the most beautiful way.

As you view these two pictures, notice the lake, the stars, the clouds and the moon.  

Written in the stars will be her name. NEVAEH.

Reflected in the water will be HEAVEN.

This dedication is permanent. I have been thinking about it for a long time.

I want it to be perfect. I want to find the perfect tattoo artist. I am also scared to get the tattoo.

What tattoos do you have? What are the stories behind them? Do you regret getting the tattoo? Do you regret not getting a tattoo?
