Hello. I plan on getting a tattoo when I am older. I plan on getting a tattoo of a tiger. Though if you look up tiger tattoos on the internet, it will show that it only means strength, but to me (since I love tigers so much and research so much about them as a young kid), it shows how I am an independent, strong, beautiful creature that is rare in this world hoping to get passed all the challenges in my way (anxiety, social difficulties, etc.). One day I hope to be a tiger on the inside and out (metaphorically). I just wanted to share this to all of you .

Does anyone on here have something similar? I mean a tattoo, object, keepsake that means something to your MH/MI?

Thanks for the response .

Hi Nike

Having a tattoo like that would be a really great idea to symbolize the type of person you want to become. The only thing is, perhaps you could get one that could be removed later on. If you were to tire of having that in the future. The only keepsake I have is a small brass ornament of a lion that reminds me of my late mother. Take care. I hope and pray you have a really great day. God bless and best wishes from your friend Francis

I have a flower on my right hand. I have multiple sclerosis and my right hand is affected. Now I can look down at my hand and smile.
Thanks for this!

I have a Koi Fish inside bicep represents perseverance, a dragon on the outside bicep which represents protection, and a foo dog on my forearm which represents guardian. The foo dogs come in pairs so eventually I'll get the second one.
