I have to say that this tattoo is really beautiful and has a deep and immense meaning and I think it is perfect for me. I have made many mistakes in the past and I believe that if I had not made them I would not be who I am now and I am grateful for my mistakes because it is thanks to them THAT I HAVE GROWN!

This was my 3rd tattoo. It's gorgeous and I customized it by making it more stylized, therefore very fine. If you want I'll try to post a photo. The site is amazing and I have already chosen my 4th and the idea for the 5th ;D
[TT: the photo arrived, thanks for sharing it! Well done! :)]
