OKay, I know this is a really old topic, but I JUST GOT A TATTOO and I wanted to share!!!
Mine is a turtle (the Delta Zeta mascot) on the top of my foot. I know that it is kind of an odd placement, but I didn't want it high on my ankle, and when the artist suggested it and drew it, it looked great!!!
It's kind of a cartoon looking turtle, with the green feet and head, but the shell is a daisy, and it's in a profile.
I have been thinking about getting one forever, and when I finally decided to do it, I knew I wanted a turtle, because it means so much to me. I have had a really hard year, a violent relationship that took me forever to get out of, and other set-backs, and during all of this, my big (actually grandbig- the story is in greeklife under My Big Sister) gave me a framed turtle print with our motto, "Behold the turtle; She only makes progress when she sticks her neck out." on it, to remind me that I just had to have courage.
Now I not only have that picture, but everytime I look down I am reminded of how much courage I have and that I can make it through anything!!
In the Flame,
Missy
