I've been thinking about getting a tattoo for decades, but have always been hesitant. I've never heard these points brought up before, and found them fascinating!
In 24 years in US Army, i avoided getting a "tatt." Best tattoo I ever saw was on a Soldier during a predeployment exercise: on the back of his shaved head he had "If you can read this, you are TOO close!" I bet he grew his hair out once he sobered up.
I feel like tattoos are a symptom of the narcissistic quality of our age. Everyone needs to tell *my* story. Look at *me*. Ask *me* about *me*. I think because as a culture we've lost our identity in Christ- especially with regards to our equality and individuality. So everyone is clamoring to feel special and heard and seen. When you, just the way you are is enough. I also find them emotionally selfish, some days when I'm in the thick of my own story I do not have the emotional capacity to bear the added weight of any one else's. Anyway, thoughtful remarks. Thanks Fathers, praying for you always!
If I had known you were in Berlin, I would have invited you for a beer! Oh maaan! Btw, if you ever visit Berlin again, I recommend you to visit Potsdam, which lies directly next to Berlin in the south-west. It's a much more beautiful city. There's A LOT of 18th century stuff there and there are old beautiful gardens and palaces everywhere.
I love it when y'all just jump right into the topic like this! I don't want to sound too harsh but sometimes the little chatting in the beginning feels forced or uncomfortable. When you jump right in like this, not only the beginning but also the whole show feels smooth and natural.

Thanks for tuning in, Sheryl!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Odalys! God bless!
Fr Gregory rightly throwing shade on Calibri size 11 font. The worst default.

My niece got two sleeves along with her dreadlocks. She topped it off by taking drugs, crashing cars, and announcing she's a lesbian.
Pray for her
@@johnpaul3362 Thank you
Love you brother Gregory. Mom sent me this episode, but I told her I believe that ship has sailed😂

Totally disagree. I love the chatting at the beginning.
Thanks for the feedback, SJ!
In heaven our bodies will not have any tattos. God made us beautiful as we are

Thanks, Seth!
A specialist told me the ink can have adverse affects in the body.I don’t see that’s talked about.😊
No!
A public tattoo does not give you the right to ask about it just because you can see it. Better to stifle your own curiosity.
