Symbol is something that represent or stands for something else. Symbols often take the form of words, visuals, or gestures that are used to convey ideas and beliefs. My friend have tattoos of many different kinds stamped to his arms and chest to represent his freedom of expression. My friend stamps tattoos on himself to look cool.Tattoos represent a way for people to express their; feelings, to be prideful, freedom, to be rebellious , or just like my friend to be cool. Tattoos are expensive, they are painful and they are permanent. And after all the effort is put to have a tattoo, a large section of the society find them repulsive. From workplace to court, treatment toward a tattooed person can be prejudiced. They are labeled as criminal, a thug, and uneducated. People think that tattoos are just a cry for attention,a rebellion against society or a way to hid who we truly are. But in actuality tattoo designs carry a meaning and tell you something about the person's belief or his or her background. They are not scared of public opinion and would love to show what they believe in.
Interesting, to be honest I was being narrow minded about tattoo before until this one person shared to me about his desire to have a tattoo for the very first time.He wanted he's mom tattooed on he's shoulder since his mom passed away already he wanted a wings symbol on his shoulder and that signifies that wherever he will go his mom will look after him and will guide him .
ReplyDeleteI believe you get a tattoo it should stand for something. Now a days people are getting tattoos that are irrelevent and mean absolutely nothing to them in there life.
