1. My winter coat probably, it is awesome and warm and I love it.

2. I have two:

One on the inside of my left ankle of 3 Dandelions. I mostly got it because in Norwegian we have this expression "løvetannbarn" (Dandelion child) for children who grow up abused and/or neglected, but in the end turn out okay. So it is just a reminder to myself that even if my past sucked does not mean my future will. Also Dandelions grow in concrete and if you don't think that is badass then you are wrong!

My other one is on the inside of my upper right arm and is just "Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure" from Harry Potter, and I got it both as a reminder for my cousin and because I feel the quote matches me.

Both are in black/grey if anyone wonders... And I will probably get more tattoos in the future.

3. Yes, the only one that comes to mind was a secret a while ago about taking off shoes in the bedroom, and I kinda accidentally made a bigger deal out of it than I meant to, but I got a lot of nice replies on the etiquette of when and where people take off their shoes.

That "dandelion child" is one of the sweetest things I've ever heard. I'm glad things worked out for you. If I ever get a tattoo it'll be something symbolic as well, and not in color.

It is a pretty cool expression, so am I. Getting something with meaning behind it is usually pretty smart*, and no colours means you don't have to touch it up as often.


*Not that just getting something because you like it isn't a equally good option

I'm not sure what kind of information you want? It is just a word that is used about children that go through though shit*, my foster father always calls me it. It is a metaphor, just like the flower that grows everywhere, you can also manage even if you don't get much, a bit of water and sunlight and you can still thrive.

The Norwegian wiki (there isn't an English one) says the English expressions used for the same is: superkids, stress-resilience or invulnerables.

*Mostly abusive situations, but I assume it could be used for children with mental or physical disabilities too.

I hope it is something that can help more children! I know it helped me, because it is the only thing that is used to explain my childhood that does not put blame on my parents or the "oh you did so well considering..." things that people usually say to me.

Anyway did that clear it up? Or do you have any other questions? Even if you think of them later you can always PM me and I will get back to you.
