In this time you
see people of all races, sizes, weight just different in their own way. Tattoos
are even different on different people. Body art, which is what some people
call them became more popular nowadays. People get tattoos for a numerous
amount of reasons. I’ve seen portraits done of people’s love ones that have
passed on, pets, guns, and cartoon characters and even celebrity tattoos. Most
would say that it is unprofessional to have a sleeve of tattoos on your whole
arm or tattoos on your neck. I would agree that they can be a little
distracting and misleading but that should not be the reason we are judged. I
have two tattoos and both have meaning behind the artwork I am not the type of
person to just put anything on my body because I was bored at the time. My
hummingbird on my neck represents how I would want to be free like a
hummingbird just be able to fly freely and chirp that’s music to my ears. I am
a music lover and love to sing so If I had a choice in another life I would be
a hummingbird. Plus I think they are beautiful birds, sounds weird but that’s
the truth. The one on my arm represents my culture it’s the sun and stars off
of the Filipino Flag and under it is written in cursive beauty in tagalog. Some
people just get anything without thinking about it just to have more tattoos
than another person.They say criminals
and thugs have tattoos and that it is gang related. Most of the time it is true
but not all the time. Body Art can tell a story in some cases. You can learn
more about a person by looking at their tattoos and that is also a way of
making small talk with someone. I can see how it would be
distracting in the work place and I agree they should be covered if possible
just to look presentable. I think it could go both ways, if you have the skills
to obtain your job your appearance shouldn't matter. I think it just depends on
the company. Nowadays companies are becoming more open and modern with time.

This is a very insightful post. I feel that you approached this topic with sincerity and it inspired me not to be so judgmental when looking at people with tattoos and get to know them for the meaning. It is a form of expression and I thought it was very beautiful how you described the hummingbird. This was a very personable post and I looking forward to more... SUBSCRIBED! lol
