I mentioned that I knew what I wanted my not only first tattoo's to be. I don't think people should be mistaken that I am the type of person to want a tattoo just to have one and show it off or because I think I am cool for having one. I want one to keep me going. I have waited to find meaning in what I want printed on my body and being only 16 you may think I am crazy. But no, I have the explanation right here:
On the top of my right foot I want Fearless.Fearful printed in Hindu, a beautifully written language. The words: chosen because I have known them...but it didn't hit me until just a few days ago that they actually meant something more to me then just...well being words. I believe that I always will have something to be fearful of and always something to be fearless of. I think it shows courage and strength to be able to know that you have both. I am a diabetic and that is sort of what sparked the whole thing. I have been fearful of my life for 11 years now, but I have also been fearless of this disease for 11 years now and I have shown courage and strength because of it.
The second tattoo I want to get is something I heard...the title of an album by the lead singer of the strokes, a band I listen to almost everyday. It is titled "Phrases For the Young" not on itunes might I add. But it caught my attention because...I love being young. I love being with my friends and remembering the phrases we have said and laughing so hard our stomachs hurt because of some of the stupid things we say, but knowing that we remembered it. Being young is something that I believe you should cherish, and remember and take in. As I explained this to Molly she was supportive and thought that they would turn out great! And I am thankful. Each of them when I do get them, will be little reminders of mine and close to my heart.
