I have been considering a tattoo for a long time. One that would look somewhat like my ava. Something that anyone looking at wouldn't think about but that i would know the true meaning of. Although for me the meaning is more about the lifestyle choice i am/have made then about the person (Dom) that the choice is connected too, if that makes any sense.

As to branding... makes me melt just thinking about it. Could i do it? Maybe one day i will find out. BUT... it is certainly something i would very seriously consider for a long time. And, as with the tattoo, i would probably lean more towards something that is, to me, more symbolic of my submission. Because that is something that 10 years down the road or longer probably won't change... Even as much as i loved my Master, life is just too uncertain sometimes. (Although His chat id I initially met Him under included the word Corazon which is "Heart" in Spanish... maybe that is why i am still so fond of the ava... *grinz*)

Cutting... not so sure about. Would take a lot of conviencing on that one!
