What is this blog about?
Many people spend their lives skimming the surface. It’s habitual: chatting, exchanging pleasantries, repeating the patterns of the day, and yet many of us are also desiring of the meaningful interactions, the deeper connections, the experiences and adventures that leave you with a story to tell. We are cut from the fabric of our parents, our hometowns, our initial experiences. But throughout our lives we sew those pieces together, and it is in the redesign, redirect, reallign, of our lives, and how we choose to tell the story of our lives… that is what weaves our creation myth.
This blog is designed to scratch the surface in order to explore the things that have left a mark, perhaps accidentally, perhaps on purpose. It explores the stories we tell, how we share them, who we tell them to, and how we live and die with them. I believe in the power of story telling. That when one person’s truth is told, than universal truths are discovered that cross race, religion, and age.
This blog, hopefully with your help, is also designed to explore if their is a relationship between how we tattoo and scar our bodies, and how we are tattooing and scarring the planet.
I find the submissions through people I know, people I meet, people I pursue, and hopefully…you. So please, scratch the surface, tell me what lies beneath.
