Tattoos Have Transformed From Mom To Artwork Of The 21st Century

You could call it a 21st century art form: people use their
bodies as living displays of what they care about in the form of
pictorial art. Over time, tattoo artists have become more and
more sophisticated, able to create complex and well-executed
designs.
The World War II heart with "Mother" on the upper arm has given
way to tattoos anywhere on the body, depicting everything from
Winnie the Pooh to barbed wire. If you or a tattoo artist can
imagine it, it can be placed on your body.
Aside from being a display, people also use tattoos to
commemorate important events in their lives such as the death of
a loved one or other major life-changing events. Even if the
tattoo's design bears no obvious relationship to the event or
person being commemorated, it remains an important way for a
person to connect with emotions and memories.
Getting a tattoo has become socially acceptable for everyone,
from eighteen year old to grandma.
There are three challenges with getting a tattoo, and these need
to be considered in the process of deciding whether or not to get
a tattoo. One is that tattoos are painful. It might be better to
start with a small one so you know how they feel before
committing to something large.
The second challenge is that it is expensive and difficult to get
tattoos removed.
There are many times in our lives where we find ourselves having
very strong feelings about something and that is when we might
make the choice to have a tattoo as a result. The problem is that
feelings change over time and the strong feelings you have at a
later point in life are exactly the opposite of the feelings you
are having at this moment. The loved one becomes an ex. At the
same time, it is difficult to imagine having other feelings when
the feelings are so strong. If we could imagine breaking up with
a new love, then we probably wouldn't be in love in the first
place. And yet, all too frequently this is what happens: the
fianc�e becomes the former wife. If her name is permanently
tattooed on you, then this could be a deterrent to future
relationships; many women would hesitate to get involved with
someone who has a former squeeze's name written on him.
The third challenge is that of aging. What seems cool in one's
twenties can be embarrassing to someone in their forties. Our
values change over time as we grow in adulthood. Tattoos up and
down one's entire arm in one's twenties may mean wearing
long-sleeved shirts to work even in the summer twenty years
later. What to do?
The U.S. Postal Service has a policy of never putting a living
person on a stamp. This keeps the post office from being
embarrassed when today's hero gets caught doing something
un-heroic. Perhaps this could be a good guideline for tattoos.
If you want to commemorate a relationship with a living person,
use a symbol and not a name. If you want other people to be able
to see your tattoos, choose spots on your body that can be
covered up such as upper arm or one's legs. That way you can
enjoy your tattoo without regrets, either in the near or long
term future.
