no i'm not a jonas / brother, i'm a grown up, To my eyes the tattoo has settled into the landscape of my body like a birthmark. And I love it. It makes me feel like I’ve moved into myself and hung up a picture... But when I meet new people, they see the tattoo on my wrist and ask what it means. Being on the receiving end of this question is a little complicated. It’s an aesthetic choice; its meaning changes every day, every time I look at it. But that the meaning is mutable like words, like art, like a lifelong relationship, does not make for good cubicle or bar conversation, so I’m left grasping for an answer.
