Inked: Part 2.

I've been contemplating getting another tattoo. I've been thinking about it for a little while now. Since last summer to be specific. But I'm not sold on what I want. Here's what I know.

Something small and simple.

I'd love something on my wrist, but that is a little too visual, especially considering my future profession. I'll have to settle for something less visible or at least something I can easily cover up when necessary.

For my late brother.

That being said, I've been throwing around the word potential. It's exactly what I think about when I think about Matthew. I always imagine what he would be like now, at 17. Probably kick ass, let's face it. But when I think of him, I get a surge to become the best person I can be. Because he didn't get the chance. I did.

So I'm thinking a few things. Maybe just the word "potential" somewhere. Or some sort of symbol meaning potential.

And I'm still throwing around whether I want his name/birthday attached to it or not. It's a good memorial, but I'm not sure I want everyone to immediately see that.

So bloggers, what do you think? I would love love love your opinion.
