The Tattoo: A custom-designed typographical piece quoting Le Petit Prince. It reads: "L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux" which translates to "That which is essential is invisible to the eyes".

What is the significance to you?

Le Petit Prince is special book that has accompanied me through my life. Every time I read it, not only am I reminded of certain things I've forgotten, but also I discover new messages within the text. The particular quote that I chose is from my favorite part of the book. It reminds me of certain people, certain events, and certain riches they've offered me.

What do you love about your tattoo?
I love how I can reach around, feel my shoulder blade, read the tattoo like braille and be reminded of what really matters to me.
