Some Thoughts on My Tattoo:
Getting that tattoo was painful. I am not going to be tough guy and say it didn’t hurt. I guess that is the price you have to pay, if you want to keep it for life a small one to pay.
It got my thinking about Christ and how much pain he had to go through to save us. Here I am just getting a little ink and I think it is a little painful. Here Christ is dying on a Cross to save my life. Thats a little bigger price to pay. I was praying to God during my tat to just give me peace and make the process go smooth. It was nice to pray to him and to think what he gave up for me.
When I got it done I said it sort of felt like someone had a pen and was drawing really hard on my arm. But at the end it was like a red hot burning pain, on my arm.
Today my tattoo sort of feels like sunburn.
And now for some explication of my tattoo.
- Monster – Is the world and it is what I live in. It is big and always will be their to take me in.
- Computer (XXX) – I love computers and they are part of my life. Also their is three X’s on the computer screen. Why, because porn was part of my life and it was a stuggle I had. It will always be in my life because of this world. I say not because I look at it now but because of how the world is today.
- Holy Bible – My faith it will always be with me and God will always be with me. I read it everyday.
- Snare Drum – I play drums and I love playing them. And I plan on playing them the rest of my life.
- Skateboard – I love skateboarding and it was a part of my high school days and if I got some free time down in TX I will go shred up a park.
- Music Notes – I love music and I listen to it a lot. It will always be a part of my life.
- The sum of it – It is my life so far

I’m impressed! Not only with your tattoo but with the person you’ve become and the focus you seem to have in your life.
wow super sweet tat!!!!…your our hero!!!
Wow… I was searching online to look at different people’s tattoos, because I’m getting my second… I saw yours and it was amazing how interesting it is, and without knowing you i feel like it tells me a story of yourself. The exact reason why people, not all but many of them, get the tattoos that they do. It’s awesome, and the person who did it did a great job.
I’m really happy that a man admitted that his tattoo was a little painful. Your honesty is refreshing.
I have two children 1 eight and 1 one years of age. I am trying to track down Mad Mike Dowis simply because he can capture a resembles that could almost breath, a living tat of my children to forever be imbedded on my flesh. Please respond. Jjadedragonfly1@aol.com

Fun Tattoo! I was googling music note tattoo’s and came across yours. What a great explanation as well. I noticed that this post is from 07, have you got more since then? It’s a bit addictive
Wow! This tattoo is well good. I looked at it, and it seemed kinda pointless, but after reading about the meaning inside it, it kinda made more sense. Gave me an idea for a tattoo myself actually. Nice one.
