Yep me too @Bill16 Permanent images on our bodies often say a lot about us. Mine are indicative of 1. an era when I was inspired by a Native American prophesy and 2. a symbol often used but I reversed it to mean I will help wherever I can but have to help myself first.

@Bill16 yeah they say that the closer it is to bone the more it hurts. Mine are on the top of my arms. Didn't really hurt at all - I was expecting it to be much worse, but determined to get them. Designed them in my 20s but didn't get them until I was 46! Got some piercings then too, but they never healed so I don't have them now. Wish I did but won't do it again.

Really felt like some sort of initiation @Bill16 - like a tribal right of passage thing. Another reason I let them close was that they always reminded me of a particular relationship I'd been in that ended in DV. Didn't need that!
