Tattoos. Most of us have them, some of us want them, some of us hate them. What ever your feeling is- they're going to be around no matter what. Question that boggles my mind; do my tattoos make me? Yes, I am a proud "tattoo owner", and I don't think the ink on my skin tells my life story, nor my personality as a whole. With the symbols I display, or the colors I present, a stranger still isn't capable to tell me who I am; both inside and out.
A tattoo is a simple way for one to express himself and remember the moment when, where and why the tattoo was done. Some people have 1 tattoo, 2 tattoos, 3 tattoos, or even 55 tattoos. With covering 75% of your body with ink, does that make you a "bad" person?
Now, I will be SO honest with you all. I'm a hypocrite when it comes to tattoos, also. Why get something that you will later regret? Then you want to get a "cover up" and just fuck up your body. So in that case I say....choose wisely!
Now, my love for tattoos. I love them! Being a woman, I admire sexiness! No, you will NEVER see "Black Sexy Bitch" or " [insert name here]'s Wife" tatted on my body. That's just something I'm not down for! Now, something sexy! Something you can cover up when need be, or show at the right moment ;). It's all about how you feel! Now, the process. Some like it, some LOVE it. I personally like it....as my tattoo artist talks to me, makes me laugh, we vibe out to music together, I forget about the pain-I enjoy it.
Well, after I went off on a tangent, as I always do....because I'm "Simply, Nye" and its MY show, MY blog. Okay, I'm done! Point is! Tattoos are art! Life is art! Put the two together and you have beautiful art! Live your life baby, do what makes you happy and just be yourself! Therefore, if you are [insert name here]'s wife....tatt it up! If you are a beautiful black bitch, go for it! Just prepare for the stares, snarls, lovers and haters. It shouldn't make you either way. On that note, I'm out-until next time!

Good points Nyesha. I've contemplated getting a tattoo for years but struggle back in forth with the flack I'll get about it from my family members. At the end of the day, it shouldn't matter. It's my body and i can do with it as I please.
