Not sure where to post this, but putting it here as these are survivor symbols for me. I got two tattoos last Thursday, as I wanted them both really badly and couldn't pick just one to start with.

I was going to wait until they were fully healed and take some photos but I just can't resist posting them, so here are the pictures my tattooist took right after inking.

Birds on my left shoulder:

My new tattoos

Ani DiFranco song title / survivor statement on my lower back - I designed this using a font called Jane Austen:

My new tattoos

I feel braver and stronger now I have these so please forgive me wanting to show them off.

l love the font. It really engages the eye beautifully. And the birds are lovely. I love the simplicity of the color of the pair. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks Hankster! I looked through a LOT of typefaces before I found the right one.

I want a rabbit next but no idea where on my body.
Thanks for this!

Great tattoos and the birds are an awesome symbolism for freedom. At my age( 57) I always wanted a small heart tattoo some place discrete, but have always feared the pain
