Tattoos of your organization

I know some people have controversial feelings about having actual letters on their body and what that means for their conduct, but I feel like I am always representing my sorority, and thus I should always act accordingly (not that it's always easy).

It's sounds corny, but especially when I was going through rough periods with my chapter, my tattoo reminded me of the values of my organization and inspired me to live my ritual every day.

If your tattoo is on the nape of your neck, how did it remind you of your organization's values if you couldn't see it? Not being sarcastic--just curious.

No worries. I saw it in the mirror, and could feel it (the skin is actually a little smoother on the tattooed part). I also get asked about it when I wear my hair up, and I like to talk about my GLO.

I guess you're right though. It wasn't always seeing it, sometimes it was just knowing it was there and that I felt connected to my GLO because of it.
