daddys-chaton-noir: So I have always been really self-conscious about my stomach b/c of these chicken pox scars. Anyway, got this fucking tattoo as a distractor/idgaf-mark/it’s-cool-I’ve-made-peace-with-tattoo, right? Then, I had a kid & the tattoo I got there ballooned, then shrank & has stretch marks through it as a result. My belly button is wrinkled at the bottom b/c of this, but that’s OK: matches my ass & thighs now. Tiger stripes. These are things that I do my best to minimize & hide, but they aren’t anything to be ashamed of, shit. They are the scars of my life. They’re a part of who I am. & I really like who I am. Maybe not every day. Maybe not every part. But I work really hard to try to be a person I’m happy to be. & I hope down to my toes that everyone reading this can also find their happy. Thank you to @pastelwhips for sharing her beauty & tagging me to do the same. I want to tag anyone who wants to say, “fuck this shit; I like me as is!” But also specifically @moonriseeinin, @littledarlingnikky, @i-hey-hi-bye, @kittenbabyxo & @awilduntamedthing -- source link
