Tattoo ideas serve a lot of purposes, depending on how they are designed and what they stand for. Sometimes tattoos are a source of rebellion, and for some people they are a way to commemorate a life event, a loss or a struggle. Sometimes they are a way to show love and commitment, and of course, there are instances where tattoos are simply a drunken mistake you get to wear for the rest of your life. But these days more and more people are getting inked with meaningful messages and designs that do more than just look pretty, they also come loaded with emotion and purpose.
