Bright, I don't have any tattoos yet - this will be the first. I figure the pain of getting it will be a PIECE OF CAKE compared to the pain my H has put me through! Yes, it would shock my H too. I don't care. This one is for me, to remind me daily to let go of things as I think they 'should' be. And sort of a 'congratulations to me' thing, for getting through this past year. Something I'll never forget, and something that has changed me forever, in a good way. Do it Bright! :-) Something just for you...
About the dream - my counselor also suggested it might mean that I finally felt like I could stand on my own two feet, and that I didn't need my H to help me do that. I like telling people about the dream. I always get goose bumps...
