If it was like acupuncture where, I'm told, you don't feel the needles going in, maybe. Otherwise, I'm with you. But if I did, what would it be? hmmmm<br />an anole -- do you know the creature? I just met it in Bermuda. A kind of small lizard that loves the sun and is a bright blue and green as it matures....more dull in color as a youthful anole. That's me :) Rejuvenated and more colorful now. Would that we could all become more and more colorful with age :)<br />Thank you for this post. Powerful words -- and words that got me thinking too!<br />PS: I love dolphins and the ocean :)lillianthehomepoet.wordpress.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12664830773553716989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856606190655958351.post-16386414344975365832016-04-15T03:26:18.492-04:002016-04-15T03:26:18.492-04:00I'm with you on avoidance of tattoos - and not...I'm with you on avoidance of tattoos - and not through fear of needles. I find such desecration of the body totally repellant.
