The Tatoos of Life

Here's another contest...I have no idea if this is original or not so, oh well. For this one, I would like a story that talks about any experience that has an everlasting impression on you. Did something sad, important, regretful, or good happen to you? I do not care if it's something that actually happened or if it is fiction; just make it seem realistic.

Rules:

1. No adult catergories. I turned 14 on the 18th, but I'm still too young.
2. Try your best at spelling and grammar.
3. Make the font/background combination easy to read. Please, do not give me a headache. I'm already sick.
4. No bashing God, religion, race and whatever else.
5. One entry per person.
6. No fantasy, horror, or science fiction. Non and Realistic Fiction is fine.
7. Put a fact about you many people would not normally know about you in your Author's Notes so I know you read the rules.

If you have questions, message me.

Have fun!

    I wasn't sure if my story really fit into your category, but I figured I'd enter it anyways. If it doesn't work, then you can remove it (if that's possible?)
