MIRROR: Download from MEGA
i prefer myself unmarked unless the marks mean something to me. to date:
as a kid: i got my ears pierced when i was 9, which was the most awesome thing in the world to me, since i wasn't even allowed to watch tv or anything at the time. i got a second hole in my right ear when a group of friends of mine at a religious camp were rebelling by piercing eachother. i got the third hole in my right ear was done by my best friend's mother who was dying of m.s. and who was like a mother to me, so i knew i would always remember her.
as an adult: i got my tongue pierced after a many year long, horribly poly relationship which went awry b/c no one in the relationship communicated. i got it done to remind me to always speak my mind. i have a scar of a swirl within a circle on my ankle which i did after another traumatic personal event, because i often see my ankles and it is a symbol that reminds me of pepetual life and to keep going.
i really want to brand myself and have wanted to ever since i realized my nature. i don't have a problem with the pain and i know how to do it. it's choosing the symbol that is the hard part for me because it has to be something that expresses absolutely everything about my emotional journey (to me), but i also want it to be something simple.
i'm also a quotations and word freak and would LOVE to just get quotes tattoo'd all over my body, but that is not a possibility for either my image nor my job.
so, if it is not derailing the thread too much (if it is, i'll just start another one in general or somewhere), why does everyone have the markings they do?
