Why does change have to = regret? That’s what it seems you’re implying. Craig Ferguson made a statement once on his Late Late Show. This is a total paraphrase. He does not mind that his tattoos change as he grows older; and he will not regret his tattoos as they grow and change with his aging body. His tattoos are part of him. They are part of his story. His life story includes getting older; heck, the story of life IS aging. And part of growing older is a changing body – a body he is proud of. A body that has served him well.
I don’t have tattoos, and probably never will get one, but everyone I’ve met who has and loves tattoos feels the same as Craig does. Their bodies change, and so do their tattoos. It’s part of their life story. Sagging tattoos and all. It’s not something to regret; it’s something to embrace and be proud of.
