There's one thing I’m still addicted to and it’s one of the things I love most in life

I'm not being funny but... who decided tattoos needed to stop at a certain age? We all remember when we were kids and first noticed someone on our block or our cousin's tattoo for the first time.

That curiosity around them that gets a lot of us wondering if we should get one. Once that curiosity begins, we start hearing the "no's". "What if you'll regret it later? What will you look like when you get older?". I know that there are countless people out there who've regretted some of their tattoos but I feel like that in itself is part of the journey right? A memory, a love, a fun moment. The idea that you can't age with tattoos is bollocks. You get wrinkles regardless, what does it matter if you have ink on your skin or not?

I actually got my first tattoo quite late in life. It was 2001 so I was already in my 30s. I went tattoo-mad for a bit, making my body a canvas of emotional projections. There's a grenade on my arm to remind me I could blow up at any moment. I have arrogant and hypocrite on each of my hands - for obvious reasons. Nowadays the tattoos I just mentioned are more of reminder of where I was and that there's never the need to go back to being the type of person I was.
