By now, you must be wondering why in the world did I get a tattoo on my breast? Well, I have always liked tattoos. When I passed my first anniversary of quitting smoking, I treated myself to a couple of gold rings. So, when I reached my first anniversary of sobriety, I wanted to treat myself to something special. I finally got up the nerve and went to a well-established local tattoo artist. The little red she-devil is a representation of the naughty, devilish part of myself. In one hand she's holding a beer bottle and in the other her trident along with a cigarette. The bottle is the bottle of booze that I used to rely on and the cigarette is the representation of all of the years I smoked. It's a constant reminder of my being only human, and it gives me inspiration whenever I get the urge to drink or smoke to not give into the desires. Finally, it's a reminder that I'm not the same person I was before. I take care of myself now and try to not fall into old patterns of self-abuse.
